Farrah Fawcett's Son Arrested on Jail Grounds

Farrah Fawcetts sonWhile Farrah Fawcett is reportedly fighting for her life -- her 24-year-old son is now fighting two brand new drug charges.

Redmond O'Neal was arrested around 9:30 this morning in Castaic, California -- and here's the rub, he was on jail grounds at the time of his arrest.

According to cops, Redmond had just dropped off two friends at a detention center to visit a jailed buddy, when an officer stopped his car to perform a routine security check in the jail parking lot.

Authorities say when the cop came over to the car, Redmond informed the officer that he was in possession of narcotics.

Redmond was immediately searched and then arrested for possession of a controlled substance and bringing narcotics into a secured jail facility. We're told one of the substances was heroin.

Redmond is still behind bars -- his bail has been set at $25k.

16. This kid has been helped soooo many times, it is useless. It's not like they haven't tried. He just doesn't get it. If he were mine, I would change the locks on the house and cancel all credit cards and money and let him find out what the REAL WORLD is like without famous parents!!

17.
Guy's a addict. Those who say he keeps making bad decisions are wrong. This jerk of a son lost the ability to make a decision. Sadly, it seems no one has gotten through to tell him that plainly, he's nuts.

18. The kid needs a long-term commitment to a facility. Involuntary commitment. Looong term.

And INNY - STFU. You're a moron. I hope you're sterile.

19. I can't believe that Farrah is, apparently, close to death. She wasn't just a sex kitten, she is a smart and tough lady.

20. #4, #4, #4 -- Shame on you! How dare you make such a comment. She is dying and she is a mother. And you want to talk about her "nips." You are such an ignorant ass! Shut your pie-hole. My God, what the hell is wrong with you?

Peace be with you Farrah!

And, Peace People!

22. I read on drudgereport.com that she is in bad shape and the family has gathered. All three of Ryan O'Neal's kids are messed up. Tatum had drug problems and her husband John McEnroe raised their kids, Griffin and Ryan regularly get in fist fights and are addicted to drugs, and Redmond is a train wreck. Sad.

23. My prayers go out to Farrah Fawcett. I love her so much. I can't believe that she is so ill. Everyone watch Farrah's "The Substitute Wife", "Between Two Women", "Small Sacrifices" and the "The Burning Bed". "Between Two Women" is my personal favorite. I think it's her best performance. She is a fine actress but never got the accolades that she deserved.

27. Druggies are druggies!! Just because they are movie stars kids doesn't mean then have any sense. He will have to live with it If his Mom gets any worse. She needed to implement some tough love long ago. Redman is short of making quite a name for himself as a drug user and trouble maker. Now I wish for him is to get clean and be there for his mother, do I think it's happening while she's so ill?? Don't think so,

28. What the hell was he thinking???? His mom is in the hospital on her death bed and he's prowling around with friends!!! He should get time for lack of morals

29. The only O'Neil kid that isn't screwed up is the one that Ryan didn't raise. What a bad father!

30. I just hope Farrah will be okay.
Her son was arrested countless times during his mothers battle with cancer
