When the news broke yesterday about Gary Busey allegedly being inappropriate  with several women at a fan event, my first reaction was let's presume innocence here.  I do not like to rush to judgement on anyone when they are being accused but more details are being brought to light and it does not look good.

According to TMZ, The Daily Beast and other publications, Busey was on location for a fan event called "Monster Mania" and was taking pictures with the women who accused him of the crimes.  According to legal documents, one of the women says Busey put his face close to her breasts and asked her where she got them.  He then allegedly attempted to unlatch her bra strap.  The other woman claims the actor tried to grab her behind.

According to The Hookup, authorities got a call the day after the event from a man who reported his daughter was also sexually assaulted by Busey at the event.  To learn more, get details from The Daily Beast.

The story gets stranger, Busey appears to be doubling down on his strange ways.  The day after the allegations he reportedly was seen with his pants down in a public park.  Sheesh.
