Overview
- Albuquerque police say the warrant charges two counts of sexual contact with a minor and child abuse, and officers are seeking Busfield.
- A criminal complaint alleges two child actors from The Cleaning Lady were inappropriately touched on and off set between late 2022 and spring 2024.
- Investigative records describe gifts and off‑set meetings with the children, which an officer characterized as classic grooming behavior.
- Busfield told investigators the accusations are a revenge plan by the children's mother, while acknowledging it was very likely there was incidental physical contact such as lifting or tickling.
- Police began probing the case after a hospital physician alerted authorities in 2024, and Warner Bros. says it is cooperating after its 2025 review reported no incriminating evidence.
