Edward Furlong was arrested yesterday morning after allegedly violating a court order to stay at least 100 yards away from his estranged wife.
The Green Hornet actor - who is the subject of a three-year restraining order forbidding him from going near Rachael Bella at her home, place of work and vehicle - was taken into police custody after turning up to court for a progress report where it was found that, according to the Los Angeles City Attorney's Office, Edward breached the order last month by coming within 50 yards of Rachael. The 33-year-old star - who has a four-year-old son, Ethan, with Rachael - was then sent to jail, before being released after posting his $75,000 bail.
A probation violation hearing has now been set for Valentine's Day. The restraining order came after Rachael - who filed for divorce from Edward in July 2009 after three years of marriage - told the court in a previous hearing the actor repeatedly drives past her house, once threatened to kill himself and refused to take a drug test when she demanded he take one during their custody dispute.
Edward - who shot to fame at13 - has a history of alcohol and substance abuse problems and has had several stints in rehab. He was arrested twice in 2001, for driving without a license and driving under the influence (DUI) and again in 2004 when he tried to free lobsters from a restaurant in Kentucky, where he was filming Jimmy and Judy.

Jane Doe” - the actor alleged Shannon “has shown a tendency to damage, destroy and steal my property and I believe she will continue to do so in my absence and while she is trespassing in my home.”

Bill Murray Divorce Finalized

What could possibly be more surprising than hearing Bill Murray is a drug-addicted, abusive adulterer? Hearing that his divorce has already been finalized!
What was gearing up to be one of the nastiest settlements in Hollywood ended quietly and quickly two weeks ago - just one month after Jennifer Butler Murray filed the initial paperwork. Bill’s wife of nearly 11 years began divorce proceedings back in May citing “adultery, addiction to marijuana and alcohol, abusive behavior, sexual addictions and frequent abandonment” amongst her reasons. Jennifer also sought a restraining order at that time claiming the Groundhog Day star had been physically abusive to her.

Restraining Order Filed Against Bill Murray
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Divorce, Legal Issues, Rumors,
Every once in a while there’s a story you personally wish wasn’t true. This one would be mine.
On May 12, Jennifer Butler Murray, wife of comedian Bill Murray, filed for divorce in Charleston, South Carolina. And while most of us are used to hearing the overused phrase “irreconcilable differences,” what Jennifer had to say in those papers could put the Charlie Sheen-Denise Richards feud to shame.
According to the court documents, Jennifer blames “adultery, addiction to marijuana and alcohol, abusive behavior, physical abuse, sexual addictions and frequent abandonment” as the reasons for the end of her 10-year marriage.
Butler also felt it was necessary to file a restraining order against Bill due to his reportedly violent nature. Despite moving with their four children into a separate residence back in 2006, Murray allegedly came to his estranged wife’s home and physically harmed her. The Lost in Translation star supposedly “hit her in the face and then told her she was ‘lucky he didn’t kill her.’ ”
