Timothy Busfield to be released from jail in New Mexico child sex abuse case
A judge ordered Timothy Busfield to be released from jail Tuesday as his sobbing wife, Melissa Gilbert, mouthed, “Thank you, God,” during a detention hearing after the actor and director was charged with child sex abuse.
Judge David Murphy ordered that Busfield, 68, be released on his own recognizance until the trial.
He can leave the state to live at home, per the judge’s orders. Busfield will also be supervised upon release by a pretrial service in Albuquerque.

As creepy as he looks I truly believe he didn't do anything to the children … Yes it was inappropriate for him to tickle their stomach and their legs… And he should definitely apologize to the children for making them feel very uncomfortable… As far as touching their private parts I don't think that happened
It's so crazy that society has accused and found him guilty with no proof yet.
Let both parties take a lie detector test !!
