Farrah's Son Busted for Drugs -- Again!

Posted Feb 13th 2008 4:52PM by TMZ Staff

Redmond O'Neal, son of Farrah Fawcett and Ryan O'Neal, has been busted for DUI and drug possession -- for the second time.

On January 26 at around 3:20 AM, Los Angeles County Sheriffs pulled over the 23-year-old for speeding on PCH in Malibu, and arrested him for DUI, felony possession of heroin and methamphetamine. Redmond was released on $10,000 bail. No court date has been set.

In 2005, Redmond pleaded guilty to possession of cocaine and methamphetamine. According to the National Enquirer, Redmond has been in rehab a dozen times.

In 2007, Ryan got into a fight with his other son, Griffin, after Griffin allegedly tied Redmond to a staircase. Griffin claimed to have found Redmond unresponsive and feared his brother had overdosed, so he chained Redmond to a banister to prevent him from leaving to get drugs.

31. Tristie,
Almost everyone in his family has had a drug and alcohol problem except for his half-brother Patrick. It seems to be a predispostion in the family.

36. You're WRONG #29 Tristania, being a celeb-u-spawn has everything to do with it - they have all kinds of money to spend on the drugs or they get them from the parents, who have been to rehab 1000 times -- PLUS all their friends are celeb-u-spawns who have the money and drugs if THEY DON'T that day. These kids are LAST on a celeb's list of things to do - or pay attention to. And that's why they a drug seeking, drunken A-holes. There are plenty of stories that don't even hit the papers that local Malibu residents know all too well. These few we see in the news are the tip of the iceberg, the rest are there, waiting to make the news. Yes, I agree that the "average" teen has some of the same problems, but not the means and ways to make such problems NEWS.

40. Yup. Patrick O'Neal is the only one who hasn't embarrassed himself. He was raised by his mother Leigh Taylor-Young. The rest of them all have drug problems.

42. Another drug addict up to his bad habits. Great timing when your mom is so ill, like she really needs to deal with your selfish addiction at this time! Calling Ryan, time to pay for your son to go to rehab.
