Thank you for presenting a simple example and the resulting output.
Unfortunately, your mail client has mangled it, inserting asterisks
making syntax errors, and wrapping lines that should be separate.
Please, in future, compose messages only in “plain text” mode. Your text
examples will survive much better that way.

You are passing a Python dict value to the function. JSON is a
serialisation format, and the input to ‘json.load’ must be a text
string.
A literal Python text string looks like this in the code::
"foo bar baz"
A literal Python dict looks like this in the code::
{ "name": "Joe", "address": "111 Street" }
