Veteran actor James Hardy was found dead on June 3 at his own home in Tarzana, California.
Cops have confirmed that he was stabbed to death by his lover's son, who has been identified as 44-year-old Michael Gledhill, who also lived at the same residence.

The violence unfolded with a chilling emergency call that was made at about 9:30 am. During this call, the cops shared how the suspect boldly confirmed that He is the son of the man, and he just killed the man of sin.

LAPD officers found the 81-year-old star in his front yard with several chest wounds, and he was soon pronounced dead at a hospital shortly after that. Gledhill was arrested at the scene and is now being held on a $2 million bail, with his case being transferred to mental health court.
