Timothy Busfield
Feds Busted Inside Actor’s N.Y. Home
Published
Timothy Busfield surrendered to law enforcement on child sex abuse charges Tuesday … and now we’re learning new details about the U.S. Marshals’ search to nab him, including a raid on his New York property.
Turns out the “West Wing” actor gave himself up just in time yesterday in New Mexico, because the feds were hot on his trail … busting through the door of his home in upstate New York.
A rep for the U.S. Marshals tells TMZ … Marshals were searching for Busfield and drove by his New York state address, hoping to catch him there.
Believing he was in the home, Marshals entered and searched for him, but came up empty, according to the rep.
We’re told “nothing was taken,” and officers made a “clean departure.” The Daily Mail was first to report the search for Busfield in New York.
Marshals had previously been sitting on the home to see if Busfield would show up, as neighbors said they had seen Busfield there recently, we’re told.
As we reported … the award-winning film and TV actor and director is accused of sexually abusing two boys who were child actors on “The Cleaning Lady” while he was directing the show in 2022 in New Mexico. Prosecutors say the child actors were 7 and 8 at the time of the alleged contact, and their parents reported the alleged crimes to the Albuquerque police two years later, leading to a criminal investigation.
Attorney Christina McGovern told TMZ … “I conducted an independent and thorough investigation of all allegations known to the Studio at the time. Warner Bros. gave me full discretion as to my investigation. Based on what was alleged, and all evidence gathered, including multiple witness statements, I found no corroborating evidence that Mr. Busfield engaged in inappropriate conduct or that he was ever alone with the twins on set.”
Busfield has made clear he will “confront these lies,” adding, “I did not do anything to those little boys.”
He’ll make his first appearance in court in New Mexico today at 12:30 PM PT.

Kiefer Sutherland Arrested for Allegedly Telling Uber Driver, Pull Over Or I’ll Kill You
Kiefer Sutherland
Arrested for Allegedly Telling Uber Driver …
Pull Over Or I’ll Kill You!!!
Published
Kiefer Sutherland was arrested for allegedly threatening an Uber driver who refused to pull over and let him out of the vehicle … TMZ has learned.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ … Kiefer told police he was having dinner with a friend Sunday night. Late in the evening, he called for an Uber Black, the driver arrived, Kiefer jumped in and they were on their way to Kiefer’s home.
For some reason, during the drive, Kiefer told the driver to pull over and let him out. Kiefer told cops the driver refused, and Kiefer twice more asked the driver to pull over, to no avail.
At some point, according to the Uber driver, Kiefer threatened to kill him if he didn’t pull over. The driver, who called 911, claims Kiefer assaulted the driver with his hands.
As for what dispute triggered the confrontation, it could be a language barrier. Our law enforcement sources say, when cops arrived, the Uber driver — who spoke Russian or Armenian — requested a translator. LAPD then called someone who spoke his language.
We’re told the driver never alleged an injury, but Kiefer was arrested for a felony … making a criminal threat. He was released on $50,000 bail.
Trump’s Ford Plant Heckler
Union Backs Him Amid Suspension …
Fighting To Save His Job
Published
TJ Sabula, the Ford plant worker who yelled “pedophile protector” at President Donald Trump during his visit, has the full backing of his powerful union amid a paid suspension … and they’re fighting to keep his job.
United Auto Workers Union Vice President Laura Dickerson tells TMZ … “[TJ Sabula] believes in freedom of speech, a principle we wholeheartedly embrace, and we stand with our membership in protecting their voice on the job.”

Dickerson adds … “The UAW will ensure that our member receives the full protection of all negotiated contract language safeguarding his job and his rights as a union member.”
She also takes a swipe at Trump, telling us … “Workers should never be subjected to vulgar language or behavior by anyone — including the President of the United States.”
We showed you the video first — TJ yelled out “pedophile protector” at Trump as he was walking through the factory … and it clearly got under his skin. In response, POTUS mouthed “F*** you” to TJ before flipping him off.
For his part, TJ told the Washington Post he seized his opportunity and has no remorse … but he is concerned about his job and future employment and feels he’s being “targeted for political retribution” for “embarrassing Trump in front of his friends.”
TJ’s union sounds prepared to fight tooth and nail for him to stay employed … and a pair of GoFundMe campaigns have raised more than $350,000 for him.
