Early this year, police arrested Timothy Busfield for the alleged molestation of twin boys.
The actor has maintained his innocence in this case.
He has been accused of other sexual assault instances, but those allegations were very different.
A member of Julia Roberts’ family testified about those allegations.
This deposition dates back to his 1994 sexual assault allegations
In 1994, Eliza Roberts — sister-in-law of Julia Roberts, wife of Eric Roberts, and stepmother of Emma Roberts — gave testimony in a deposition.
Eliza was speaking in support of a 17-year-old girl who accused Busfield of sexual assault.
This was on the set of Little Big League, a comedy film.
At the time, Eliza had only been a Roberts for about two years.
She testified about an alleged creepy overture from Busfield years earlier.
According to Eliza, five years before the deposition, Busfield had told her with little preamble that he would like to perform oral sex upon her.
RadarOnline reports that he allegedly boasted to her that he would be “so great in bed” for her, specifically.
Busfield allegedly disparaged his wife as a “lousy f–k” at the time.
(In 1988, he married his second wife, fashion designer Jennifer Merwin. They share two children, and divorced in 2007.)
Despite the testimony, the alleged incident with the Minnesota never led to criminal charges. Instead, Busfield settled with the teenager for an undisclosed amount.
Every part of this is just SO upsetting
The actor is also accused of sexually assaulting a 16-year-old girl at a 2001 audition, including touching her genitals without her consent.
Busfield’s current charges strike a different tone, and not only because of the gender of the alleged victims. Age is also a huge factor.
The allegations that led to his arrest earlier this year are that he sexually abused twin boys, who were child actors on The Cleaning Lady, from November 2022 until early 2024.
Neither boy has been publicly identified. We do know that both boys are now 11.
Busfield has characterized the allegations as “horrible lies.” He declared: “I did not do anything to those little boys, and I’m gonna fight it.”
In the case of the twin actors — the one that has led to Busfield’s arrest and current legal proceedings — he is not the only one claiming that he is innocent.
A witness has disputed the Busfield allegations.
The witness from The Cleaning Lady‘s set insisted that no one, including Busfield, would have had access or privacy to prey upon any children on the set.
Perhaps more significantly, the witness alleged that the boys’ mother had vowed revenge on Busfield after he had declined to re-hire her twins for their role.
Additionally, it is reported that the boys had denied any sexual wrongdoing to a therapist before working with a new therapist.
People have a lot of theories but few solid answers
To be clear, there is no evidence (or even, as far as we have seen, suggestion) that any teenage girl accusers have only identified Busfield as a predator after dubious therapy sessions.
Though the actor has no prior criminal history,
It is possible for a predator to have a wide range of victims, or to show little-to-no preference, or to have an array of victims who remain secret and thus do not show a pattern of preference.
At the same time, it is conceivable that a public figure with an already dubious (at best) reputation could become a target for allegations that are untrue and do not fit with his prior bad acts.
To be blunt, there is a lot that we do not know about this case. Hopefully, evidence at trial will point a blazing arrow to the truth.

Actor Crispin Glover — best known for his work in films like Back to the Future and What’s Eating Gilbert Grape — is at the center of a shocking new scandal.
The suit was filed by a woman identified as a “model originally from the United Kingdom who lives with autism spectrum disorder and related mood disorders.”
She claims that after meeting Glover online in 2015, he convinced her to move to Los Angeles, where they entered an increasingly abusive relationship.
The plaintiff alleges that Glover “coerced her into living with him” and subjected her to “increasingly bizarre and inappropriate demands.”
She claims he tracked her movements, and when she began to indicate that she wished to move out, he physically assaulted her, “leaving a visible wound and scar on her neck.”
The woman alleges that at her lowest point, she was reduced to living as Glover’s “sex slave.”
The suit details a number of bizarre encounters between Glover and the defendant, including a 2023 in-person meeting in Dresden, Germany, during which he “showed off several items of Nazi memorabilia from his collection.”
Through his lawyer, Glover denied “these baseless allegations in the strongest possible terms,” in a statement published by Entertainment Weekly.
“The reality is that on March 2, 2024, Mr. Glover was the victim of an unprovoked felony assault by Jane Doe at his Los Angeles residence. Mr. Glover called LAPD, which came to the scene, investigated, and arrested Jane Doe,” the statement continues.
“These facts are documented by law enforcement records and by the restraining order filed by Mr. Glover against Jane Doe at that time.
“Mr. Glover intends to vigorously defend himself and pursue all available relief. He is confident the judicial process will expose this lawsuit as a meritless fabrication.”
The plaintiff claims that she was left homeless due to a “wrongful” eviction executed by Glover.
She alleges that he forcibly kicked her out of the home they shared and refused to allow her to take her cats with her.
In her complaint, the plaintiff alleges that she “continues to suffer great pain of mind and body, shock, emotional distress, physical manifestations of emotional distress, embarrassment, loss of self-esteem, traumatic injuries.”
Glover filed a restraining order against a former partner in 2024, but the request was dismissed when he failed to show in court.
We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.

The 2026 NFL Scouting Combine begins this week, which means everybody’s favorite college football players from this past season will have a massive platform to showcase themselves to general managers, coaches and scouts. It’s a huge deal to be invited, and it’s a great opportunity to prove yourself one way or another — through workouts, interviews and press conferences. There have been plenty of examples of how important these four days can be in improving one’s stock or crushing draft hopefuls’ prospects. In this week’s roundtable discussion, our college football analysts debate who might benefit most from the combine and who was overlooked and not invited to participate at all: Who needs to improve their draft stock at the combine? Michael Cohen: Elijah Sarratt, WR, Indiana Sarratt toyed with entering the NFL Draft last winter following a standout 2024 season in which he caught 53 passes for 957 yards and eight touchdowns in his first year with the Hoosiers. One reason he returned for another season was the chance to reach his personal goal of topping 1,000 yards, — a milestone he had already achieved at James Madison, but one he was eager to reach against Big Ten competition. Nagging injuries sidelined Sarratt for multiple games midyear, costing him the chance to reach that milestone. The fact that he still finished with 65 catches for 830 yards and 15 touchdowns — including three in the College Football Playoff — speaks to how impactful Sarratt can be when healthy. A strong showing in Indianapolis this week could vault him higher in the wide receiver pecking order. Laken Litman: Ty Simpson, QB, Alabama Simpson is hoping to be the second quarterback selected in April’s NFL Draft behind Indiana’s Fernando Mendoza. There’s also chatter that while Simpson could be a first-round pick, he could also be taken later on. Simpson was at Alabama for four years, sitting patiently his first three behind the likes of Bryce Young and Jalen Milroe. He started the 2025 season and threw for 3,567 total yards (second in the SEC behind Ole Miss’ Trinidad Chambliss) with 28 touchdowns and just five interceptions. He led the Crimson Tide to an 11-4 record and a spot in the Rose Bowl, where they lost to eventual national champion Indiana. However, Simpson’s stock took a hit as his performance dipped toward the end of the season. He reportedly turned down lucrative transfer offers to enter the draft because, he said, that playing at another school would “tarnish” his legacy. NFL brass has to like his loyalty and maturity in making that decision. Simpson is expected to throw at the combine, too, which could certainly boost his stock. RJ Young: Joey Aguilar, QB, Tennessee Up until last week, Aguilar believed he would start for Tennessee, leading the Vols toward a second CFP appearance in three years. Instead, he’s now part of a crowded job fair — competing with some of the best quarterback prospects in the world for a chance to make an NFL roster. Aguilar isn’t the type of signal-caller teams typically target in the first two rounds. Still, his lone season at Tennessee was impressive: over 3,700 yards, 24 touchdowns, and just 10 interceptions. Even more remarkable, he mastered Tennessee coach Josh Heupel’s playbook in the summer and won the starting job in preseason after joining the program through the spring transfer portal. Aguilar must not only perform on the field as an older rookie — he’ll turn 25 this year — but also demonstrate command of the game in one-on-one interviews, navigating formations and schemes with precision. Who was wrongly snubbed from the combine? RJ Young: Jaden Dugger, LB, Louisiana Dugger was an absolute menace in the Sun Belt last year. Along with 125 total tackles in a conference that produced its first CFP invitee — James Madison — Dugger also accounted for 4.0 sacks, a forced fumble and an interception. Scouts love his measurables. As an inside linebacker, he stands at 6-foot-4, 240 pounds, has an 84-inch wingspan and arms that are almost 35 inches in length. Dugger is the kind of specimen at the position Dallas Cowboys linebacker Kenneth Murray Jr. was coming out of Oklahoma but with better production at the collegiate level. Some teams will see him and recognize supreme value in a player who didn’t get an invitation to the combine in a deep linebacker draft. Litman: Kaelon Black, RB, Indiana Black, another transfer who followed Cignetti from JMU, led Indiana last season with 10 rushing touchdowns and was second in total rushing yards with 1,040. He had 80 fewer yards than Hoosiers’ teammate Roman Hemby, who was invited to the combine. Black is a talented downhill and patient runner. He ran for 241 yards and three touchdowns across three CFP games, including the 79 yards that led Indiana in the title game. There were 21 running backs invited to the combine. Because he was overlooked, Black will have to impress NFL general managers and head coaches at Indiana’s Pro Day on April 1. Cohen: James Brockermeyer, C, Miami (Fla.) The interior offensive line is far from the most glamorous position in football, but Brockermeyer has been viewed as a blue-chip player for quite some time. He was a four-star prospect and the No. 194 overall recruit when he committed to Alabama in the 2021 cycle, ultimately spending two seasons with the Crimson Tide in a reserve role. He transferred to TCU ahead of the 2024 campaign and quickly won the starting center job, allowing just a single sack in 500 pass-blocking snaps, according to Pro Football Focus. That was enough to propel Brockermeyer to Miami this past fall, where he anchored one of the strongest offensive lines in the country and helped the Hurricanes reach the national championship game. He did not allow a single sack across 558 pass-blocking snaps, according to PFF, and earned third-team All-ACC honors from the league’s coaches. There should have been a spot for him in Indianapolis. In Let’s Debate, our experts tackle and explain the hot-button issues fans care about.Latest Sports News from FOX Sports
