Power has seen another major dramatic character death, as the show's final season continues. The most recent episode, titled 'King's Gambit', saw Joe Proctor – played by Jerry Ferrara – shot and killed by Tommy Egan (Joseph Sikora).

Why does Proctor get killed?

He chose to die, rather than to admit to crimes he had never committed and he believed that he should die with honour, whilst preserving his own good name and the integrity of his family, rather than having to living his life in shame and forever regretting the sin that he had committed.

What season did Proctor get killed in Power?

However, fans around the globe would have been hoping to see Joe Proctor (played by Jerry Ferrara) last longer than he did, meeting a particularly brutal death at the hands of Tommy (Joesph Sikora) in the fifth instalment of the season's 15-episode run.
