Emmy-winner Timothy Busfield faces a fresh sexual-abuse accusation as he prepares for a Bernalillo County court appearance on two counts of criminal sexual contact with a minor and child abuse; prosecutors say he poses an ongoing danger and seek his continued detention, while a filing also blasts Warner Bros for limited cooperation in its internal probe related to misconduct on The Cleaning Lady set.
Albuquerque Police Chief Harold Medina addressed the federal investigation into officers missing court dates for DWI cases, stating that the department relied on the Bernalillo County district attorney to notify them of absences. Medina emphasized that he wasn't pointing fingers but acknowledged the lack of a system to track officers' court appearances. An internal investigation is underway, and accountability will be enforced for any involvement in the alleged scheme. The responsibility for notifying APD of missed court appearances remains unclear, and it's uncertain if the department had a system to ensure compliance with court attendance rules.
