General Hospital (GH) news reveals that after alum Johnny Wactor’s (Brando Corbin) shooting death, his former fiancé released an emotional video about his murder. While his family—mom Scarlett and two brothers—appreciate her feelings, they don’t necessarily need her to vent in public about the tragedy.
Scarlett told TMZ that Tessa Farrell dated Johnny years ago and they were not in touch at the time of his death. They hadn’t spoken in at least 2-3 years and the family were not in contact with her. As such, they’re not sure why she has been so public with her sentiments.

According to the outlet “Tessa’s emotional plea for stricter laws in L.A. rings hollow for Scarlett, who tells us she believes Tessa is just clout-chasing — even though Tessa’s tearful video certainly seemed genuine. In fact, we spoke to her to get more detail about what she’d like to see change in L.A’s criminal justice system.”
Tessa indicated that she thinks that “letting low-level crooks back onto the street under L.A.’s zero-bail policy is a recipe for disaster, and in this case, tragedy.”

She doubled down on her insistence that the authorities catch the suspects responsible for killing Johnny and makes it clear that she did not sympathize with them in her viral video.
In case you haven’t seen it, Tessa’s “tearfully spoke directly to the guy(s) who shot Johnny, saying she gets times are hard — but noted they could just get a job instead of ripping off catalytic converters and murdering people … a statement that rubbed some the wrong way.”

Johnny’s mom “says she wishes Tessa would stop using her son’s name for press, while pointing out that some of the things Tessa has mentioned — like the existence of surveillance video of the crime — is news to her.”
One thing is certain, and everyone can agree upon, the family is reeling after Johnny’s death and do not need any more upset.
Scarlett told the outlet that her son’s body will be flown to South Carolina where his family resides, and there are plans for a memorial for him in L.A. eventually.
No one has been arrested for the crime which took place as the suspects were in the process of stealing the catalytic converter from Johnny’s vehicle, and sources told TMZ that the shooting was especially brazen and violent without provocation.
Even more alarming “law enforcement sources say … out-of-towners even flock to L.A. to pull this particular crime — knowing if they get caught, they’ll just get a slap on the wrist.”
Unfortunately, those sources stated that “the police don’t expect this issue to get better without some serious changes from the top.”

Sounds like the ex girlfriend is trying to make herself relevant and get 15 minutes of fame! She made claims about a video being out there which isn’t true. She’s had no contact with Johnny or his family in several years. She needs to go away and just be quite before she hampers the investigation!
Condolences to Johnny’s family, and may he rest in peace!
