Wasn’t he involved when Paul Reubens got arrested a year or two ago for something? They found pictures of boys and drugs. ---

They found pictures of boys and drugs. \*\* The fuzz snagged some warrants and searched Jones’ and Reuben’s houses on some sort sort of bullshit kiddie porn rap last year. They got nothing on Jones and only found erotic art at Reubens’ pad. I don’t know…this whole Jones case reeks of high-profile, headline-grabbing, celebrity set-up to me. ---

There’s a story at [CNN.com](http://CNN.com) saying that Paul Reubens is being charged on a misdemeaner child porn bit, from that artwork flap last year. Prosecutors waited until the last legal day to file the charges. Here’s a [link](http://www.cnn.com/2002/SHOWBIZ/11/15/reubens.artwork.flap/index.html) ---

“Jeffrey Jones is accused of using the boy in a sexually oriented film. Attorney says there was no touching and ‘his life shouldn’t be ruined.’” [http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/showcase/la-me-jones15nov15.story](http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/showcase/la-me-jones15nov15.story) ---

What an \*odd \* movie. \*\* I was mildly disturbed when my mouth started watering when he eats people stew near the end. My justification is that it’s probably really beef, and it looks good, dammit! And one of Jones’ lines: It’s lonely being a cannibal. You don’t get that many friends. ---

I just saw Jones in the TNT movie “Avenging Angel” (part of my ongoing Tom Berenger film-fest). He played a good guy that turns out to be a bad guy. I also loved him in “Amadeus”.

I will always remember him as Spike in “Stay Tuned.” His secretary stole all of his scenes in “Ferris…” [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ferris-buellers-principal-arrested/136912.md?page=1)
