One of two men charged in connection with the 2024 killing of former 'General Hospital' actor Johnny Wactor during a catalytic converter robbery in downtown Los Angeles has been sentenced to over five years in prison. Frank Olano pleaded no contest to charges including accessory after the fact and receiving stolen property.
Actor Johnny Wactor, seen at the Glendale premiere of “Silent River,” on Oct. 13, 2022, was shot to death during a catalytic converter robbery on May 25, 2024 in downtown Los Angeles . One of two men charged with lesser crimes in connection with last year’s downtown Los Angeles killing of former “General Hospital” actor Johnny Wactor was sentenced Wednesday to more than five years in prison.
Barceleau and Estrada — who are due back in court Jan. 22 — are also facing allegations filed last month, while Estrada is facing an allegation that someone involved in the crime personally and intentionally discharged a firearm causing great bodily injury and death. Estrada described Barceleau as being “hot-headed” and said he didn’t want to go with him that night, according to the detective. Estrada also told the undercover operative that Wactor had “rushed” him and that he wasn’t concerned about a female witness being able to identify him because they were wearing masks, the detective said.
Under cross-examination by Estrada’s attorney, another forensic print specialist said that it couldn’t be determined when the fingerprints were left on the jack. She acknowledged that they could be on an item for a year.
