7th Heaven Star Stephen Collins Free From Child Molestation Investigations

Someone's running home free. Stephen Collins, the 7th Heaven actor who was charged with child molestation a couple of weeks ago, will NOT be prosecuted for exposing himself to the 3 minors and for molestation. This is despite the existence of the audio file of Collins confessing to wife Faye Grant. Law enforcement sources reportedly said that since the cases are decades old, they will be barred by the statute of limitation from prosecuting.

TMZ has this report:

The NYPD case is the one with the best argument that the statute hasn't run ... as we reported the victim came forward in 2012 and spoke with NY detectives. But that case involves an incident in the 70s and we're told law enforcement has all but given up on a viable case.

Grant has alleged Collins molested a child while he was shooting "7th Heaven" -- sometime between 1996 and 2007 -- but we're told no such victim has come forward.

Although it looks like Collins will not be prosecuted -- assuming no one else comes forward -- he will still have to deal with the molestation issue in court. His divorce trial is next month, and Grant plans to raise the issue because she wants her portion of the assets protected in case one of the victims files suit. And he plans to raise the issue because he claims she used the audio to extort him.
