‘7th Heaven’ Dad Probed Over Molestation

Stephen Collins, who is best known for playing Rev. Eric Camden on 7th Heaven, allegedly molested numerous girls, according to a taped confession that TMZ posted Tuesday. The NYPD is investigating the actor for sexual contact with multiple children. An NYPD official told TMZ that it has located “at least three victims,” and the investigation is focused on “inappropriate sexual contact with minors.” Collins’s estranged wife, Faye Grant, secretly recorded him during a therapy session. In the tape, Collins is heard admitting to exposing himself to an 11-year-old girl and making her touch his penis. Collins also says there are other girls with whom he had similarly sexually inappropriate contact. Reps for Collins gave no comment.
