    The search is on for actor Timothy Busfield, 68, who has been accused
    of child sex abuse by minors who say the alleged misconduct occurred
    when they were working with him.

    The prolific star is on the run as the Albuquerque Police Department
    teamed up with US Marshals to bring him into custody, per a statement
    APD issued on Monday.


    Well. That's quite a thing. It's interesting that he says he doesn't
    even remember the boys. I've never watched The Cleaning Lady, so I can't
    even guess how plausible that is.

    If it's true, I hope they get him. If it isn't, I hope he's vindicated.

    I wouldn't have thought he would be one to do that. Also it's a
    strange thing that I've never heard of any similar complaints over the
    years. So I'm hopeful this is some sort of misunderstanding and he
    isn't guilty.

    Well, the article says he was served with an arrest warrant, so even he's not guilty of the abuse, he's apparently guilty of unlawful flight to avoid prosecution.
