Jon Cryer's Ex Arrested for Felony Child Abuse

Jon Cryer & Sarah Trigger The ex-wife of Jon Cryer was arrested today and booked for felony child neglect.

TMZ has learned Sarah Trigger was taken into custody early this morning at her home in Hermosa Beach, CA. Trigger and Cryer have an 8-year-old son, but police could not confirm that their child was involved in the alleged crime.

Sources tell TMZ the child's neck had rope or cord marks when police arrived. We're told officers found a weapon on the scene that matched those marks.

Trigger's bail was set at $100,000. She was released this evening. Police say the child is safe tonight and the Department of Children and Family Services is now involved.

UPDATE: TMZ has learned the child involved in the alleged crime was NOT Jon's 8-year-old son. Police say it was Trigger's two-year-old son with her current husband.

This is really sad-I can't understand what is wrong with people anymore. I really hope that Jon Cryer gets custody of this boy and raise him the right way.

I sincerely hope that (if this is in LA) the LA police will redeem themselves by not releasing or "leaking" the identity of this child.....or anywhere else, for that matter.

I always figured that he was gay like David Hyde Pierce.
I still think he might be.

I hate to say it, but some folks think a kid is an accessory; Then hurt the child when it needs time and attention. I sincerely hope the child is healthy and that it will be placed with in a safe and loving home. If that means the father gets the child rather than the mother there is no reason a man can't be a good parent; The only thing a woman can do is carry it around for 9 months ad some women screw that up.
Maybe one day all parents will realize that children are a gift from GOD on loan to the parent, make it worth something. It is a shape that there are parents who are more concerned about media attention and any and everything else rather than their child and wonder later on the child is self sufficient and has made a life without the parent

Until the details are released to the public anything that is said is pure speculation. It certainly sounds like she snapped. If she did in fact harm this child, she needs to rot in hell and jail.
