I'm not in the US and had never heard of him. I did a Facebook search restricted to "Your Friends" and another restricted to "Your Groups and Pages" and there is zero coverage.
I think people are overestimating how well known this guy is.
Same here (I live in Romania), never heard about the actor and I think I have only read some general stuff about the case itself on reddit some time ago, but I didn’t give it any importance. Not to mention that me living in the EU means that I couldn’t read the posted article at all.
