The confession alone will make it hard for him to work (I hope) near children. I feel bad for the victims. I hooe someone steps forward and brings some charges to present day.
for the time being at least, I think he won't get any work whether it's around children or not. and since he's not a huge star, his career may be totally over

Stephen Collins I Can't Get Work Because of 'Molestation' Tape

Stephen Collins
says he's now unemployable after audio of him confessing to child molestation surfaced.

Collins' lawyer filed new legal docs -- obtained by TMZ -- in which he says the divorce trial between the actor and Faye Grant just got a whole lot easier, because there won't be a fight over future income.

Collins' lawyer says, "Faye's decision to parade that recording ... has resulted in Stephen having no income other than investment income and pension income."

As you know ... TMZ posted audio of Collins' confession to molesting and/or exposing himself to 3 young girls.

His lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan, adds, "Stephen suffers greatly from the pillaring (sic) by the media surrounding Faye's unlawful recording."

Makes me sick. And using the word 'suffers' in a sentence about him and also 'unlawful (not using word untruthful) recording'.

Twisted sicko POS probably doesn't think he did anything wrong to those kids.
 
Even if his wife takes half he can still live off his money without working all he has to do is downsize and cut back. I think this is just an excuse to not give her what she's asking.
isn't that what divorce lawyers are all about?
and I'm sure it's true his earning capacity is gone so all there is to fight over is what they've accumulated already

she did probably shoot herself in the foot financially

Stephen Collins NYPD Looking For More Molestation Victims

Stephen Collins is NOT in the clear in the child molestation case -- not by a long shot -- because we've learned the NYPD is on the hunt for fresh victims.

TMZ broke the story ... the NYPD was investigating at least 3 cases of alleged molestation or indecent exposure, but all 3 case are so old authorities believe the statute of limitations have run.

But sources tell TMZ ... 2 NYPD detectives flew from New York to Seattle to interview the woman whom Collins admits on tape to molesting when she was 10.

Cops were not interested in probing the woman's story any further, but they were intensely interested in finding out if other, more recent alleged victims might have come forward.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... they don't want to close a case where the suspect admitted he's a child molester. So the NYPD is aggressively pursuing leads and has no plans to shelve the case.

He's in a world of s**t - that he created for himself. Good on the victim for having the courage to come forward. He's named her himself as well, which is a confession. He's going to get jail time for this I hope. Good.

"Made amends"? How? "Oops sorry I molested you and screwed up your life and probably your interpersonal relationships etc". GTFO.
I hate to say this but I he's not going to jail....his career is toast but he will remain a free man.
 
This douche and Bill Cosby should move to deserted island together.


Stephen Collins Confesses to Sexual Abuse 'I Did Something Terribly Wrong'

Stephen Collins is publicly acknowledging he sexually abusing three underage girls, but he says, "I have not had an impulse to act out in any such way" in the last 20 years.

Collins made his comments to People -- and will sit down for an interview with Katie Couric -- where he will discuss his confession about molesting and/or exposing himself to 3 underage girls decades ago.

He writes, "Forty years ago, I did something terribly wrong that I deeply regret. I have been working to atone for it ever since."

Collins says he apologized to one of the victims 15 years ago, but decided against contacting the other two because he thought it "could actually make things worse for them by opening old wounds."

Law enforcement has been investigating the incidents, but our sources say the cases will go nowhere because the statute of limitations has long since run.

Stephen Collins Opens Up About Molestation Cases: 'I Did Something Terribly Wrong That I Deeply Regret'



Stephen Collins is finally opening up about his child molestation cases.
The 67-year-old 7th Heaven actor has released a lengthy statement in which he admits to inappropriate sexual contact with three female minors after allegedly confessing to the crimes to his wife Faye Grant in an audio released earlier this year.
“Forty years ago, I did something terribly wrong that I deeply regret. I have been working to atone for it ever since,” Stephen told People. “I’ve decided to address these issues publicly because two months ago, various news organizations published a recording made by my then-wife, Faye Grant, during a confidential marriage therapy session in January, 2012. This session was recorded without the therapist’s or my knowledge or consent.”
“On the recording, I described events that took place 20, 32, and 40 years ago,” Stephen continued. “The publication of the recording has resulted in assumptions and innuendos about what I did that go far beyond what actually occurred. As difficult as this is, I want people to know the truth.”
More of Stephen‘s confession will be revealed in an in-depth interview with Katie Couric, which will stream on Yahoo! and air Friday (December 19) on 20/20 on ABC!

Stephen Collins Victim Says Apology NOT Accepted

less than a minute ago BY TMZ STAFF

EXCLUSIVE
1217-stephen-collins-tmz-3.jpg


The woman who was just 10 when Stephen Collins molested her and placed her hand on his penis says she's not buying his belated apology.

The woman -- now in her 50s -- is telling family members, "Stephen is minimizing the incident. It was not just a spontaneous touching ... that aggression resulted in him ejaculating."

She also scoffs at Collins decision not to apologize to her and another one of his victims, saying, "His assertion that he wanted to avoid re-opening an old wound seems nonsensical to me."

She doesn't believe there are only 3 victims -- the ones he confessed to on audio.

The woman has filed a police report with the NYPD and an investigation is underway, but we're told any case would be rejected because of the statute of limitations.

She clearly wants more than a mea culpa, asking, "Why isn't he donating any disposable income, beyond what he needs to survive, to a child-abuse charity?" And shes says, "Maybe he should at least try apologizing to his victims."
