Activist caught with headless torso arrested, was guest on Joe Rogan show

This story is absolutely wild. The video above is from this man's appearance on Joe Rogan's podcast - and of course, Joe Rogan likely had no idea this incident would happen. The man is Sheldon Johnson Jr, 48, an ex-con who became an activist. He was arrested and charged with murder after he was caught with a headless torso in an apartment in the Bronx. The torso also had no arms.

Sheldon Johnson Jr was charged with murder, manslaughter, and weapon possession. He's accused of killing Colin Small, a 44-year-old man, according to Yahoo News. Sheldon Johnson shouted that he was innocent, but of course the court will decide what happens next. The report further said:

Police took Johnson Jr. in for questioning after officers responding to reports of gunfire found the suspect with Small’s mutilated corpse inside a sixth-floor unit at a Summit Ave. apartment building near W. 162nd St. at around 8:30 p.m. Tuesday, cops said.

Johnson Jr. was hired to work as a client advocate for Queens Defender after spending 25 years in an upstate prison for a 1997 robbery he committed in his early 20s. He was released from prison in May, records show.

On a Feb. 1 episode of the Joe Rogan Experience, lawyer Josh Dubin called Johnson Jr. “a miracle” and told the show’s host that he had been unfairly sentenced for the robbery that left his victim with only “two stitches.”

“(He) was basically told by an African American judge that you don’t matter, you don’t count and I’m going to throw your life away,” said Dubin, who appeared on Rogan’s podcast as a guest alongside Johnson Jr.

Residents of the Summit Avenue apartment building heard two shots coming from a sixth-floor apartment around 1 a.m. Tuesday, followed by a man shouting, “Please don’t, I have a family,” and then another two shots, cops said.

Law enforcement wasn’t notified of the gunshots until the building’s super — who complained that a neighbor waited hours before informing him of the disturbance — called in a wellness check for Small around 11:30 a.m., police said.
