Two Men Charged With Murder of Actor Johnny Wactor

Two of the 4 men arrested in the k!lling of “General Hospital” star Johnny Wactor have been charged with murder.

 

Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón announced the charges on Monday, August 19.

While 4 men have been charged with multiple felonies in connection with Wactor’s de@th, only 2 were hit with m*rder counts.

 

Prosecutors say 18-year-olds Robert Barceleau and Sergio Estrada are both charged with Wactor’s murd£r.

Barceleau’s charge includes a special circumstance allegation of murd£r during an attempted robbery, and, as a result, he’s facing the possibility of life in prison without parole.

 

He’s also charged with one count each of attempted robbery and grand theft, both while armed with a gun.

 

Estrada is also charged with murd£r, as well as attempted robbery and grand theft, both while armed with a gun. But unlike Barceleau, his murd£r charge does not include the special circumstance allegation.

 

Meanwhile, 19-year-old Leonel Gutierrez is charged with attempted robbery and grand theft while armed with a gun.

The fourth suspect is 22-year-old Frank Olano. He’s been charged with accessory after the fact to murder, receiving stolen property, and 3 counts of being a felon with a firearm.

 

Cops swooped in early Thursday, August 15, and executed multiple arrests and search warrants.

 

Johnny was shot and killed back in May after leaving his job as a bartender in downtown L.A. — he approached his car and saw a group of people trying to steal his catalytic converter, and prosecutors say Barceleau shot him in the chest.

 

The murder charges are a big break in the case, but Johnny’s coworker, who was with him the night he died, has said the actor’s family won’t be at peace until there are convictions in the case.
