Sad because it was apparently suicide rather than what one might reflexively expect was directly the cause. He played Walter White Jr. on "Breaking Bad", and suffered from cerebral palsy just like that character. Lived in Brownsville, Texas (SpaceX Starbase territory).

Kind of nukes an inferior, exploitive series or movie returning to the family tradition of BB someday in the future. (Though I don't recall Junior being interested in chemistry, anyway.)

SO sad to hear this. I loved his character and his courage to play it off his real life affliction. Once again perhaps another confirmation that depression spares not the successful nor even the self-motivated social advocate.
