Fort Lauderdale – The Broward Sheriff’s Office announced on Aug. 8 that it has arrested the man allegedly responsible for murdering a South Florida businessman almost three years ago.
According to authorities, John Snavely killed Sam Del Brocco, 60, who had brought Snavely home for a likely sexual encounter.
Snavely performed in gay porn films as “Joshua Logan.”
Del Brocco was found stabbed to death at his Pompano Beach home in September 2010. The slain businessman’s body was found not long after he was last seen having dinner alone at Kelley’s Landing in Fort Lauderdale.
Del Brocco, raised in South Florida and a graduate of Chaminade-Madonna College Preparatory in Hollywood, had at different times in his life also been a school psychologist and part time entertainer.
Snavely, 26, is currently in jail in Saint Lucie County on violation of probation charges. He faces one count of second-degree murder for his involvement in Del Brocco’s murder.
