Fans of Kim Delaney, the star of the legendary daytime, “All My Children”, and the show of cops of the 90s, “NyPD Blue”, try to understand the head in the news that the actor had another race with the law.
Delaney, 63, was arrested on Saturday, suspected of criminal assault, linked to “a stormy dispute” with his partner James Morgan “who became physical,” TMZ reported. The Los Angeles County Sheriff Department said that Delaney and Morgan had been arrested for domestic violence at their home at Marina Del Rey at 10:15 am after paramedical paramedics responded to the scene and eliminated them medically.
On social networks, people expressed their shock from this turn of events, some remembering her like Jenny Gardner in “All My Children” in the early 1980s, the beautiful, kind and sensible high school student whose presence was described as “celestial”. During her three years on “All my children, Delaney became half of the most appreciated” super couples “of the show until her character Jenny was killed by a loose lover.
“My teenager,” proclaimed a person on a Fox News Facebook message about his arrest.
But others have said that people should not be shocked by his legal problems and say that the aspects of her real life more precisely reflect Diane Russell, the detective she played on “NYPD Blue” from time to time for nine seasons. The favorite love story of Russell fans with the detective Bobby Simone (played by Jimmy Smites) was in danger by Russell’s difficulties with alcoholism.
Indeed, Delaney’s personal life was spoiled by what seems to be a fairly rooted consumption problem, which affected his career and led to very Russell type brushes with the law, the Daily Mail and other points of sale have reported.
In 2002, she was arrested in Malibu, suspected of drunk driving, after refusing a blood test after being stopped by the police, Daily Mail reported. Delaney then pleaded without assistance at the expense and ordered to pay a fine of $ 300, to take a course of driving in a mandatory drunkenness and to be in probation for two years.
Later that year, she was abandoned from a leading role in “CSI: Miami”, a spin-off of the “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation”. Entertainment Weekly initially reported that she had been written in the program after only 10 episodes due to her lack of chemistry with the Co-Star David Caruso. But the following year, she checked at the alcohol rehabilitation center in Arizona, limiting her return to “NYPD Blue”, entertainment also reported.
Delaney alcohol problems increased in 2005 when she lost custody of her son Jack Cortese, who was 15 years old, Daily Mail reported.
The teenager testified that Delaney put her in danger by forcing him to go up with her when she recovered her during a party when she was in intoxication, the Daily Mail reported. He also said that she also urged her friend to get into the car, although they refused to go with her because of her apparently drunk condition. Cortese also testified that it was not the first time that his mother had led him into drunk.
Six years later, in September 2011, Delaney was withdrawn from the scene during an event in honor of the former defense secretary, Robert Gates, after having made an inconsistent and pending speech, which led the participants to believe that she was in intoxication, said the Daily Mail.
Delaney’s first declaration on the incident was only in 2012, and she minimized it at Entertainment Weekly, saying that she “did not feel well” “when she delivered the speech and claiming that there were” technical problems “, reported the Daily Mail.
Before the arrest of this weekend, Delaney was involved in another situation which could lead people to conclude that it is still struggling with drug addiction problems.
In January 2024, she was continued by a motorcyclist who said she had fled the place of an accident after allegedly crushed her car in November 2022, the Daily Mail reported. In court documents, witnesses allegedly allegedly led to irregularly led before the accident.
In his trial, the motorcyclist Dzhamal Badalov said he was arrested at a red light on the Boulevard de Venise in Los Angeles in November 2022 when Delaney crushed his bike.
Badalov said the accident threw him from his motorcycle and in the intersection. He said that Delaney had tried to leave, but others prevented him from leaving. When Delaney left her vehicle, she seemed disoriented and perhaps under influence. Badalov said she was talking to someone on the phone. He said that she had tried to make her talk to the person on the other line, who proposed to pay him a sum of undeveloped money if he had left him leaving the premises without reporting the incident to the police.
When Badalov said he had refused the offer, Delaney always left before the police could answer. The Los Angeles County District Prosecutor’s Office later opened a criminal case against Delaney and charged it with success, US Weekly reported. Radar Online reported that a plea had been struck with Delaney in which she was sentenced to attending a 12 -month diversion program and sentenced to 50 hours of community service.
Since Delaney’s career peak in “NYPD Blue”, for which she was nominated three times for having supported actress Emmy, winning once in 1997, she continued to work, although the successes were elusive.
Delaney played a recurring role in “The OC” appeared on “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” and played a main role in the television series for life, “Army Wives”. She returned to day soaps in 2021 and 2021 by playing the role of investigative journalist Jackie Templeton – a role from Demi Moore in the early 1980s.
