According to Joss’s husband, Tristan Kern de Gonzales, he was the victim of a homophobic attack. Kern de Gonzales said on Facebook that the gunman was “yelling violent homophobic slurs at us. He then raised a gun from his lap and fired.”
However, the San Antonio Police Department (SAPD) said: “Despite online claims of this being a hate crime, currently the investigation has found no evidence to indicate that the Mr. Joss’s murder was related to his sexual orientation.”
