    Jeffrey Jones Arrested for child porn

    Jeffery Jones. Played the Emperor in Amadeus. "too many notes..."
    Got arrested for child pornography and employing a 14 year old boy to pose for pornographic photos. Pled no contest to a felony and had to undergo counseling and register as a sex offender.
    He, Michael and Gary should write a book on how to elude the law and get away with it.
    Disgusting. It's like that old man down the street that entices the young over with candy and booze.

    Is it any surprise he and PeeWee Herman are good friends? Jeffrey Jones also played the principal in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off".

    This happened a few years ago-didn't it? They tried to accuse Paul Reubans of inappropriate actions,but he was found innocent.[SIZE=1]Saturday, 16 November, 2002, 15:17 GMT [/SIZE]
    US actors charged in porn case

    [SIZE=1]Jones has had roles in about 50 films and TV shows[/SIZE]


    [SIZE=2]Prosecutors in Los Angeles have filed criminal charges against two Hollywood actors - Paul Reubens, known as Pee-wee Herman, and Jeffrey Jones - following a year-long child pornography investigation.

    This is all about photos. There's no allegations of any touching or any improper acts.

    Jones's lawyer

    Jones - who is 56 and best known for his role in the 1986 film Ferris Bueller's Day Off - was charged with hiring a 14-year-old boy to pose for sexually explicit photos, and with possession of child pornography.
    Fifty-year-old Reubens, an acquaintance of Jones's, was charged with one count of possessing materials depicting children engaged in sexual conduct.
    Reubens denies the charge. His career suffered a setback in 1991 after he was charged with indecent exposure. He was ordered to do community service.
    Reubens could now face a fine and one year in jail if convicted. If Jones is found guilty, he faces up to three years in prison and would have to register as a sex offender for life.
    Both men have been released on $20,000 bail.
    Faded star
    "This is all about photos. There's no allegations of any touching or any improper acts with a minor," Jones's lawyer told the Los Angeles Times.
    "This will be resolved very quickly so he can get on with his life and get back to work," he said.
    [SIZE=2] Reubens denies the allegations.


    [/SIZE]Mr Jones's lawyer said his client was cooperating with police.
    Los Angeles prosecutors said the arrests and charges resulted from an investigation that started a year ago, during which the homes of both men were searched following allegations from a boy who is now aged 15.
    Reubens's lawyer dismissed the charge against his client as "simply untrue and without merit".
    In 1991, Reubens pleaded no contest to an indecent exposure charge after he was arrested for allegedly exposing himself in an adult cinema in Sarasota, Florida.
    After that plea, Reubens's Pee-wee Herman series of shows and films - aimed at children - came to an end.
    However he has had supporting roles in a number of films since then, including Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Blow. Besides his role as an uptight school principal Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Jones has appeared in dozens of films, including Amadeus, Ed Wood and Beetlejuice

    They never got him for doing that- like the article said-it was about pictures.
    I think it is gross-but supposedly he never touched any boys.

    Early life
    Jones was born in Buffalo, New York, the son of Ruth (née Schooley), an art historian who urged Jones towards a career in acting, and Douglas Bennett Jones, who died during Jones's childhood.[2][3] Jones went to London in 1969 to study at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, following that up with a three-year stint with the Stratford Theatre in Stratford, Ontario.

    [edit] Career

    Jones began acting in small parts in film and TV in the late ’70s. A supporting role in the 1983 Rodney Dangerfield film Easy Money, and a guest shot on Remington Steele led to his replacing Ian Richardson in Miloš Forman’s 1984 adaptation of the Peter Shaffer play Amadeus as Emperor Joseph II, to whom he bore an uncanny resemblance. Jones’ performance as Mr. Edward R. Rooney, Dean of Students in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off made him a cultural icon. Rooney, self-important and obsessed with catching the chronically truant Ferris Bueller, became a symbol of stuffed-shirt pomposity and authoritarian hatefulness. Jones has proven to be a favorite of director Tim Burton’s, starring in Beetlejuice, Ed Wood, and Sleepy Hollow, and has also appeared in such prominent films as The Hanoi Hilton, The Hunt for Red October, Howard the Duck, Houseguest, The Devil’s Advocate, and Stuart Little. Jones also had a key role in "The Pest" a comedy starring John Leguizamo, as the evil German trying to hunt Pestario "Pest" Vargas. Other key roles for Jones include "Stay Tuned" ,where he played Mr. Spike and the 1992 comedy "Mom and Dad Save the World" ,where he played Dick Nelson.
    Jones has guested on a number of television shows, including Amazing Stories, Tales from the Crypt, and Wayside. In 1989, Jones starred in Wes Craven’s short-lived CBS sitcom The People Next Door, where he played a cartoonist whose imagination could make things come to life. He also appeared as famous newspaper publisher A. W. Merrick on HBO’s highly acclaimed show Deadwood. His latest film, Who's Your Caddy, debuted in 2007.

    [edit] Arrest

    In 2002, Jones was arrested for possession of child pornography and employing a 14-year-old boy to pose for pornographic photographs.[4] Jones pleaded no contest to the felony charges and was ordered to undergo counseling and register as a sex offender.[5] In July 2004, he was arrested by Florida police after failing to notify them of his change of residence as required under Florida's version of Megan’s Law.[6] He has since been sued in civil court by the minor, who is now an adult.[7]

    OS ANGELES, CA: Internationally renowned film star Jeffrey Jones was in court Wednesday to answer charges against him in a civil lawsuit stemming from his child pornography conviction last year. It was filed by the former acquaintance who was drugged and photographed nude by the Ferris Bueller??s Day Off star five years ago.

    Citing emotional distress, Jones??s accuser is asking for a fifty million dollar judgment. The Jones camp continues denying all accusations against the actor as well as asserting that it was the boy himself who pressured Jones to give him beer and take his picture in his birthday suit.

    Fans Rally to Support Jones

    Even though he was two hours late, before entering the courthouse Jones entertained the crowd by climbing to the roof of his limo and giving an impromptu performance of ??Twist and Shout?. Fans flocked around the limo, some just gyrating to the music while many broke into a well-choreographed dance routine in the street.

    As he has during all his court appearances, Jones was wearing an all white suit with a black armband around the left sleeve. The rest of his many family members and other assorted groupies who regularly attend the hearings with him wore similar outfits. Jones?? publicist explained that the dress choice was chosen to show the solidarity of the Jones clan, as well as to protest the court??s shabby treatment of the star. Jones?? many supporters were quick to agree with that assertion.

    ??They all be against him just cause he be white,? exclaimed one angry fan, dressed identically to Jones, hugging a signed DVD copy of Beetle Juice to her chest. ??In this day and age where Halle Berry and Denzel Washington be winning all those Oscars, a white man can??t get no break in LA. He can??t get no fair trial.?

    Another supporter had this to say: ??Jeffrey could take a million pictures of naked little boys. I don??t care, and neither do the rest of [his fans]. The man who played Dean Rooney done more good for this world than a hundred Mother Theresa??s.?

    Fan outrage was not only directed at the authorities. Shortly after Jones entered the courthouse, his nineteen-year-old accuser was led into the proceedings by police escort. He was peppered with debris by angry Jones fans, many of them chanting ??What??s the score? Nothin' to nothin'! Who??s winning? The Bears!?

    The accuser, only fourteen at the time of the incident, suffers from multiple sclerosis and was a frequent guest of Jones at the actor??s lavish ??Rooneyland Ranch? just outside Beverly Hills. Jones purchased the hundred acres in 1985, spending the millions he earned from the George Lucas blockbuster Howard the Duck, and furnished it with amusement park rides and a private zoo. The zoo is usually off limits to most visitors because it is primarily stocked with ducks and human test subjects in an attempt to create the human-duck hybrid species Jones became obsessed with after filming the George Lucas movie.

    Current Conviction Mirrors Past Accusation

    The charges leveled against Jones last year were not the first to plague the actor. Ten years earlier, Jones was accused of taking nude photographs of another boy, but all charges were dropped by prosecutors once the boy decided to not cooperate with them. It was rumored that Jones paid the boy well over eight figures to drop all charges. At the time, Jones?? lawyer claimed the star was being blackmailed by the boy, but decided in the end to make a deal with his accuser to avoid further embarrassment in the press.

    In a videotaped interview made at the time and broadcast across the world, Jones relived his ordeal at the hands of Orange County prosecutors. According to Jones, he was forced to undress in the middle of a ??filthy? police station and photographed naked. ??I was humiliated,? cried Jones on the tape, ??No one over the age of fifteen should ever have to endure such treatment.?

    Rumors Persist

    Jones has come under intense scrutiny in recent years due to the bizarre transformation of his face and skin color. Over twenty years ago, when he unexpectedly took the world by storm with his scene-stealing role as Emperor Joseph II in Amadeus, Jones was thin and slightly-tanned. Lately, however, the actor has been sporting a portly frame, flush cheeks, a bloated neck, bags under his bloodshot eyes and blotchy skin.

    Jones has repeatedly denied rumors that he has avoided plastic surgery in favor of body-modification through Moon Pies and Zagnuts. He publicly admitted to having no more than two doses of Häagen-Dazs during the early 1990??s, but denies any further abuse of fattening foods.

    2 hours late,impromptu dance,matching outfits and so on? Oh yeah, that really helps with everything. I think that is even worse than what Michael Jackson pulled with one of his trials. Michael had an amusement park also,didn't he?
    Sheesh-the crimes are sick and the actions are gross. Sure the kid forced him to give him a beer-rigghht.

    I thought the line "The zoo is usually off limits to most visitors because it is primarily stocked with ducks and human test subjects in an attempt to create the human-duck hybrid species Jones became obsessed with after filming the George Lucas movie." was a little suspicious.

    Paul didn't do anything wrong- the whole thing in the porn theater is really old news.
    What he did was just not bothering to check the collection he bought. Turns out he is a pack rack and has huge collections of old films and things like that.
    I guess he hasn't even seen alot of the stuff he buys! Anyway, there was something that was suspected in one of the collection. He was found innocent.
    David Arquette and Courtney Cox Arquette went onto the airwaves to defend him. Both David and Courtney have worked with him recently.

    He very much is dancing to a different drummer. I was so upset when they canceled 'The Pee Wee Herman show' and watched both films. I like the first one the best.
    Supposedly, he is going to do another Pee Wee Movie. I even found a Pee Wee Herman doll at Good Will. Someone had marked all over it's face,yanked it's pants down and tore the talky cord out.
    I bought the doll and fixed him up and even got the magic marker stuff off his little doll face.
    I was so happy when I found Paul on Myspace and was totally wowed when he accepted my friend request.

    Thanks for defending him. I was about to immediately hit the quote button and reply decided to hold off until I read the entire thread (trying new things here.) Anyways all PeeWee is guilty of is wacking off in a thatre and being a comic genius.
    Jeffery Jones always seemed kinda creepy though esp in Howard the Duck and Ferris Buellers Day Off.

    I saw that when it came to the Cleveland Art Show. I found it fascinating and gross, de-skinned bodies posed in all kinds of ways, running, playing tennis, doing ballet. I would go again, though. They were asking for volunteers to donate their bodies. I didn't sign up.

    Sorry, off topic. Jones played Putnam, a crook of a man, in "The Crucible," too. The role, retrospectively, fit him well because he was a big jerk in it.

    What? You didn't volunteer your body?
    I read somewhere that one of the best friend's of the creator is in one of the exhibits-as an exhibition. Yup, he was one of the volunteers.
    The film 'Anatomy' got part of their idea from the exhibit. Except, the
    evil people inject living people with the plastic formula.

    Anyway!
    Jeffrey Jones is in one of my favorite film 'Ravenous' which is a dark comedy/drama/vampire/period piece with Guy Pearce and Robert Carlyle in it. LOVE that film and was most horrifed when I read about Jeffrey and what he did.
