While there have been no reports of any criminal offenses by the actor, Busey did stir up some controversy in 2008. The actor then joined VH1’s Celebrity Rehab 2, where he reportedly clashed with other celebrities during group therapy. The New York Post reported that Busey had multiple altercations on the show and had to be "physically separated" after his tussle with an individual. Per the show’s statement, Busey was associated with the production as a former substance abuse patient who had become sober after rehab. The show further revealed that Busey was diagnosed by psychiatrist Charles Sophy at the time, who believed that the actor's brain might have been the cause of his impulsive acts. The psychiatrist had recommended him to take medication, and Busey had agreed to do the same. The Texas native Busey is best known for his roles in films like 2, Lethal Weapon, and more. The actor's last work was in a 2021 feature film titled Reggie: A Millenial Depression Comedy. Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Thank You!
