Judge: Only Supervised Visits For Edward Furlong After Son, 6, Tests Positive For Cocaine
Dec. 17 2012, Published 7:00 a.m. ET
More troubles for child star-turned-cautionary tale Edward Furlong.
A Los Angeles court on Friday ordered the Terminator 2 star's visits with his 6-year-old son Ethan must be supervised after the child tested positive for cocaine.
It is not known how the drugs got into the child's system. The 35-year-old actor, in his defense, said the cocaine accusations from his ex-wife, Rachael Bella, were made with the intent to "alienate me further from my son and destroy my ability to work."
It's the latest chapter in a sad series of stories for the former child star, whose arrest record has far more footnotes than his iMDb page in recent years.
In 2012, The Green Hornet actor, 35, was arrested in October in connection with domestic violence toward his girlfriend at Los Angeles International Airport; and claimed he'd been robbed in August while getting directions in L.A.'s drug-laden Skid Row area.
Rachael got a restraining order following her 2009 split from the American History X star, citing a series of incidents revealing the actor's unstable behavior.
Edward's next project is The Zombie King, in which he stars alongside another former child star, Corey Feldman.
