To stress this option a bit more, have you explicitly re-enabled CTRL events in JtR after disabling in Johnny? like this:
SetConsoleCtrlHandler(NULL, FALSE)
As per the doc:
"If the HandlerRoutine parameter is NULL, a TRUE value causes the calling process to ignore CTRL+C input, and a FALSE value restores normal processing of CTRL+C input. This attribute of ignoring or processing CTRL+C is inherited by child processes."
