There have been several reports coming in from Florida about the missing persons case for Thundercats writer Stephen Perry, which police are now seeing as a potential homicide.
His roommates Roxanne and James Davis have been charged with drug offenses, and are now being held as persons of interest in the case, according to the Fox affiliate in Tampa Bay.
Perhaps the more gristly item of the investigation is the fact that a severed human arm was found near Perry’s apartment. Police have issued no further statements over the find. Meanwhile, his son Leo has been placed with his mother, Krystall Carroll, according to the St. Petersburg Times.
Perry, 56, had already been fighting uphill, struggling against cancer as well as financial issues, basically getting to the point where he at one point was living in a van. The Hero Initiative, who was working with Perry to help overcome these obstacles, has a video of him up on their main site discussing the organization.

Holy crap, this is pretty awful. I was just watching like 5 hours of Thundercats last week.
Though, I have to wonder what Mr. Perry had been doing associating with people who had the ability & intent to rob & dismember him.
Still, horrible story. Mr. Perry I’m sure contributed to some of my fondest childhood memories.
