1. I guess he will say the police planted it on him. Did they force alcohol down his throat? I don't think he will beat this.

2. Kids (including myself at times) feel so entitled. Like they are invincible, just because mommy & daddy have always been there to bail them out of any real trouble. I see issues like this in my own family. My 29 year old sister feels like the whole world should be given to her on a plate, because she is "entitled" to it. Now, my family isn't uber rich, but my dad makes a good living. He supports 2 kids in their twenties, helps me out with some bills, and fully supports my 6 year-old niece. Nobody in this generation actually seems to give a s**t about taking responsibility for their own actions. There are always excuses.

As for this idiot, I'd think he'd be more considerate of his mom's situation, and not try to cause her any more distress. Yeah, right. We don't care about giving to anyone else, we only care about what we get. We are too spoiled to know what difficult lives are like.

3. This looks like that British celebuspawn, Prince whatsisname.

4. I think this Prince Harry look-a-like is probably lucky he's not worse off than he is. He has two uninvolved parents who spend all their time fighting and bickering, and not raising him properly or giving him any quality attention. He grew up like that, so he turns to his friends, drinking and drugs for whatever reasons he justifies. Typical Hollywood story, typical kid of a celebrity, and in this case, his parents are both celebrities, so double-whammy. All of Ryan O'Neal's kids are unhappy. Their father is mean, aggressive and physically/emotionally abusive. The fact they have money just gives them all the means to obtain whatever they want, but doesn't change the legal ramifications. His mother, Farrah Fawcett, is never anywhere around. She's too self-absorbed with her own issues and health, and doesn't care about him at all. She uses drugs and is always drunk, too, so, is it any real surprise why these kids turn out like they do?

6. I can understand how he feels... Alot of kids who are seeing their mother just like Farrah going thru so much with her cancer could lead him to do this,.... to erase the thought of not losing his mother... i just hope he does not get punished so severely but he shud have known better.. he is dealing with some **very bad drugs **,... Praying for the whole family....

7. Agree w/#4 - if you've read Tatum O'Neal's autobiography, you know that Ryan O'Neal is one of the worst fathers EVER! No wonder all 3 of his kids have had troubles with drugs, etc. I think Tatum finally has her act together, but poor Griffin and Redmond are struggling :( Hope they find their way.

9. To 37 Justine, how right you are. I read Tatum's book and it was a horrible story. Ryan O'Neal has been the worst father imaginable. It is no wonder his kids have had such a hell of a life. And Farrah Fawcett is no better. She is so full of herself and when she began to carry on with Ryan she could not have cared less about his 2 kids. Then the 2 of them have the nerve to have a child that they seem to care less about. Is it any wonder that he acts out like he does? I hope the young man gets his act together and makes something of himself other than the spawn of O'Neal and Fawcett. And by the way, why are some folks feeling he needs to think of his mother's condition? Where in the hell was his mother when his father was beating the crap out of him? Of course this young man has to answer to the law but with parents like O'Neal and Fawcett he hasn't a chance in hell unless like Tatum he goes his own way.

11. GUILTY!! HE NEEDS TO GO TO JAIL!!! YOU SHOULDN"T DRInK ALCOHOL OR DO DRUGS, ESPECIALLY WHILE DRIVING. HIS MOTHER HAS ENOUGH TO WORRY ABOUT- I am GLAD THAT HE'S NOT MY SON

12. Ryan has another son, Patrick, I believe is his name, with Leigh Taylor Young. Apparently, he turned out okay; no doubt due to a mother who make him a priority. This poor kid is a mess!

13. Scarlett, I think you are wrong about the other son. Wasn't he the one caused the accident where Francis Coppola's son was killed? They were drinking/drugging at the time. Hopefully he has cleaned up by now. Remember all the trouble Tatum got into? I believe she is clean now too. Good for her. Can you imagine growing up in those homes, with those lavish lifestyles, reeking of excess?

14. Oh poor Redmond! He needs to sit his happy butt in prison for about 3 years and maybe then he might (iffy here) lose his heroin habit! How dare he show such little respect for his Mother who has done everything possible to save him from himself! In my opinion, Redmond O'Neal is a worthless piece of human excrement!
