News out of New Mexico took a serious turn as authorities issued an arrest warrant for Emmy Award–winning actor and director Timothy Busfield after a child came forward with disturbing allegations of inappropriate contact.
According to the criminal complaint filed by an investigator with the Albuquerque Police Department, the child said that Busfield touched him in ways he shouldn’t have while on the set of the television series The Cleaning Lady, a show Busfield both directed and acted in. The complaint says the first incident happened when the boy was just seven years old and that Busfield touched him three or four times. It alleges another five or six inappropriate touches occurred when he was eight.
