Ferris’ Pervert

What is wrong with people?

    LOS ANGELES — Actor Jeffrey Jones (search), who played the high school principal in the 1980s comedy Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, pleaded no contest Tuesday to a felony charge of employing a 14-year-old boy to pose for sexually explicit photos.

    Jones was sentenced to five years probation and ordered to register as a sex offender and undergo counseling.

This is bad enough, but as I scrolled through the rest of the article, I got to this…

    Jones had been free on $20,000 bond. He was arrested Nov. 14 after a 12-month investigation that also resulted in the arrest of actor Paul Reubens, who is best known for the character Pee-wee Herman (search).

    Reubens, 50, who is free on $20,000 bail, has pleaded innocent to one misdemeanor count of possessing material depicting children under 18 engaging in sexual conduct.

What on earth? You know, I was willing to chalk up his first “incident” as just being dumb, but this makes me wonder about his years as Pee Wee.
