Actor Timothy Busfield, 68, faces arrest following allegations of unlawful sexual conduct with two child actors, according to an arrest warrant issued January 9th in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The warrant details a concerning incident involving Busfield's wife, actress Melissa Gilbert, who was reportedly on speakerphone during a conversation Busfield had with a detective prior to the warrant being issued.

The Albuquerque Police Department obtained the warrant based on evidence suggesting Busfield engaged in inappropriate behavior. Specific details of the alleged conduct are outlined in the warrant, though the document remains sealed to protect the identity of the victims. Law enforcement officials have confirmed that the investigation began several months ago, prompted by reports of misconduct.

The report indicates that Gilbert was present and seemingly unaware of the nature of the conversation Busfield was having with the detective. The detail of Gilbert being on speakerphone adds a layer of complexity to the case and is a key element investigators are examining. Authorities have not released any further information regarding Gilbert's involvement or knowledge of the alleged offenses.

Busfield, known for his roles in television shows such as "Quantum Leap” and “Desperate Housewives,” is currently facing legal proceedings. His arraignment is pending, and he is expected to be formally charged in the coming days. The case has drawn significant attention, and legal experts anticipate a lengthy and complex legal battle. Further updates will be provided as the investigation progresses and more details become available from official sources.
