Johnston… previously pleaded guilty to a felony count of interfering with law enforcement during civil disorder in July 2024.

The 56-year-old actor was initially arrested in June 2023 after the FBI tweeted a photo requesting information about his identity. He is alleged to have led a group to the “front line of rioters confronting the police who were defending the entrance” to the Capitol, helping to launch an assault against a group of officers.

      Shit, I had actually noticed the disappearance of Jimmy Pesto, but I never thought to look it up.

      Wait, apparently they had Pesto in two episodes since, with a different voice actor.

        Ya but it wasn’t for awhile, right? There was a long time he wasn’t in there and I think they only recasted recently, like for the latest season or something.

        I was curious about it for awhile, too.
