http://www.tmz.com/2014/10/07/stephen-collins-child-molestation-7th-heaven-audio-tape-nypd-investigation/
Stephen Collins -- who played the pastor/dad on "7th Heaven" -- confessed to his estranged wife he was a child molester, and it's all on tape ... a tape obtained by TMZ. And the New York Police Dept. is now conducting an active criminal investigation involving sexual contact with multiple children.
Collins -- who is in the middle of a nasty, prolonged divorce with actress Faye Grant -- revealed to her in 2012 he had molested and/or exposed himself to several underage girls years before. Collins and Grant went to a therapist where she peppered him with questions about the incidents ... and he not only answered, he was specific.
Here's what Collins didn't know at the time. Grant taped the therapy session. We're told her lawyer advised her it was legal to secretly record the conversation because in California you're allowed to secretly record conversations to gather evidence the other person committed a violent felony ... and molesting a child under the age of 14 qualifies.
We have protected the names of the victims Collins mentions on tape. As you listen ... you will hear Collins refer to a "disclosure" and a "list." This refers to a confession Collins had already made to his wife ... which triggered the therapy session.
You hear Collins flatly confess to molesting an 11-year-old New York girl -- a relative of his first wife -- saying, "There was one moment of touching where her hand, I put her hand on my penis." He also acknowledges exposing himself to the girl "a couple of times" ... he says when she was 11, 12 and 13.
Grant asks, "When you exposed yourself ... did you have an erection?" He responds, "No, I mean, no. Partial, maybe I think."
Grant then inquires about other girls. Collins mentions an L.A. girl who lived in their neighborhood, but says he tried righting the wrong by apologizing to her years later.
And then they talk about yet another girl. It's incredible ... Collins has trouble keeping the girls straight, but then he gets clear and confirms the incident. We're told this girl was also from New York and was between 12 and 13 at the time.
TMZ has learned ... the NYPD is in possession of the tape, and last Wednesday 2 NYPD detectives from the Special Victims Unit flew to L.A. to interview Grant. We're told they asked her about the tape and about other potential witnesses.
An NYPD official tells TMZ ... there is a current, active investigation. The official says there are "at least 3 victims" and the nature of the investigation is "inappropriate sexual contact with minors."
Law enforcement sources tell us ... one alleged victim in the investigation is the relative of Collins' first wife, who we're told first reported the molestation in 2012. One law enforcement source tells us ... although decades have passed since the molestation, they believe the case can still be prosecuted because the statute of limitations runs from the date of reporting.
Collins -- who is on the National Board of the Screen Actors Guild -- frequently interacts with young actresses. In addition to "7th Heaven," he was also on the ABC Family show "The Fosters," about a bunch of young kids being raised in a foster family. And he had a role in the recent show, "Revolution" ... which also had underage actors.

That dude. I always knew he was a fucking weirdo. I was the prime demographic for that show, and could not fucking watch it because of him.
Getting left out of 7th Heaven recap convos with your middle school girlfriends, brehs. #dualities

I watched 7th Heaven during its original airing, I'm not fucking revisiting that self-assessed L for the Bore's entertainment. (At least Blossom I only watched in syndication. :whew)

you misspelled "holesome"

Why is 7th Heaven the only thing anyone connects this guy to?
HE'S DENNIS AND DEE'S DAD.
AND HE'S COMMANDER DECKER
No, Admiral. I don't think you're sorry. Not one damned bit. I remember when you recommended me for this command. You told me how envious you were and how much you hoped you'd find a way to get a starship command again. Well, sir, it looks like you found a way.
-
Oh god
[Decker announces his intention to merge with V'ger]
Commander Willard Decker: Jim, I want this. As much as you wanted the Enterprise, I want this.
Decker: I'm sure the Captain didn't mean anything personal.
Lt. Ilia: I would never take advantage of a sexually immature species. You can assure him that's the truth, can't you?

This dude is sick. He had prime opportunity to molest a teenage Jessica Biel and yet he chooses to stick his dick into the hands of an 11 year old instead. What a creep.

Reminds me of when news broke that Gary Coleman had that stroke and I was like "Hope it wasn't a different stroke."
Then they announced he died.
Guess who was labeled an asshole?
-
Meh, if he did kill himself then that can only be because he really did molest those girls. In which case they guy deserves no sympathy for his situation. Its not like 7th heaven is even The Two Jakes good, let alone Chinatown good.
-
TMZ says he didn't, it was just some unrelated commoner who got killed, so nevermind.

Never seen a single episode of 7th Heaven, every time my family would watch it I'd bolt upstairs and play Super Nintendo in my room.

There's an episode where Jessica Biel's character and her bff decide to (pardon the racist term) engage in a Chinese fire drill while stopped at a red light and while they're running around the station wagon (IIRC) a drunk driver plows into it hardcore and everyone is like, " :ohhh How are you OK?" and then they have to take the L for doing a Chinese fire drill even though it literally saved their lives.

One of my favorite scenes in Red Dead Redemption dealt with the racially-charged idiom, “Mexican Standoff,” where they’re sitting at a poker table in Mexico, EVERYONE fast draws their guns and are pointing it at each other. Someone says, “There’s got to be a name for this...” at which point I was all: :lol
Then Marston says, “It’s called an ‘impasse.’” and I was all: :rofl

At the risk of this being interpreted as positive self-image and bringing down the wrath of posters who think I should enjoy little to none of it, few Boreans have the stomach for such a bloodletting. (That's a good thing, BTW.)
This does remind me of when the only law my bad movie friends in LA and I held to (that no one would give anyone else a bad movie as a gift) was broken many years ago. The carnage was incomprehensible--someone ended up receiving a copy of The Ice Pirates for Christmas.
