The Call for Justice: Family and Friends of Actor Johnny Wactor Seek Help Finding Killers

LOS ANGELES – Family and friends of actor Johnny Wactor gathered on Tuesday to call for action from the public and officials in finding and convicting his killers.

Johnny Wactor, a former “General Hospital” actor, tragically lost his life on May 25 while bravely interrupting thieves stealing the catalytic converter from his car in downtown Los Angeles. Despite the incident being caught on camera, no arrests have been made yet.

The actor’s mother, Scarlett Wactor from South Carolina, pleaded for anyone with information to come forward in a news conference outside Los Angeles City Hall. She expressed, “It will help me and his brothers in our healing to know that they’ve been captured and convicted.”

Police have also made a public plea for assistance by releasing surveillance images of three unidentified suspects and their getaway car — a stolen 2018 black Infiniti Q50.

Born in Charleston, South Carolina, Johnny Wactor was known for his role as Brando Corbin on “General Hospital” from 2020 to 2022, as well as appearances in various films and TV series like “Station 19,” “NCIS,” and “Westworld.”

Scarlett Wactor revealed that her son had left work with a coworker when he caught the thieves in the act and was subsequently shot by a masked suspect.

Grieving his loss, Scarlett shared, “I can’t wish him happy birthday on Aug. 31 — he would have been 38. I can’t ask if he’s coming home for Christmas. I can’t ask how his day went.”

The news conference attendees also urged Mayor Karen Bass and other leaders to take further action in combating crime to prevent other families from experiencing the same pain.

City Councilman Kevin de León promised, “We want justice for Johnny and we shall have it.”
