Trivia[]
- Originally in "Ties That Bind - Part 1", Javier would have accidentally shot Lonnie in the throat and would then be put down by Max, this was then changed to have Javier instead shoot Lonnie in the ear but that also got cut and instead changed to have Javier simply take the gun off of Lonnie and knock him out.[2]
- For some reason, Lonnie is the only character with a possible death to not have his picture shown in the Richmond memorial.
- Unused files confirm that a photo for Lonnie exists and would've appeared on the wall if he was killed. However, it was either cut for unknown reasons or left out due to a glitch.[3]
- His actor, Charles Halford, also played Yago in the TV series and is one of the two voice actors from Telltale Games' The Walking Dead that has also appeared in the show, along with Brina Palencia, the actress of Paige and Ana.
- If killed, for some reason there's no bullet wounds or markings shown on his body.
- Lonnie cannot survive without Max. If Max was to be killed by either Javier or David, Lonnie will eventually be killed. If Max survives, then both Lonnie and Max will be exiled, their fates unknown.
