Actor Busfield's Phone Call Released in Child Contact Case
17 Apr
Summary
- Audio reveals actor Timothy Busfield's denial of sexual contact with two boys.
- Busfield faces four counts of criminal sexual contact with a child charges.
- An independent investigation found no evidence supporting the allegations.
Authorities in New Mexico have released audio from a November phone call where actor Timothy Busfield denies allegations of sexual contact with two young boys.
Busfield, facing four counts of criminal sexual contact with a child, characterized the accusations as "disgusting" and a potential revenge plot. He was indicted in February for alleged conduct occurring between 2022 and 2024.
Busfield's legal team is "delighted" by the audio's release, calling it "completely exculpatory." During the call, Busfield described his interactions as "playful" and "like a coach," noting the father would tell the boys to hug him.
An independent investigation commissioned by Warner Bros. found no evidence to support the claims. Despite previous allegations from other women and a teenager, a judge found no evidence of a pattern of conduct in January. Busfield was released on his own recognizance and awaits trial.
