Actor/director Timothy Busfield's sexual abuse trial set so far for next year

The disgraced actor/director Timothy Busfield's trial for sexual abuse charges has been set for next year:

A trial date has been set in Timothy Busfield's ongoing legal battle.

The West Wing alum's trial is scheduled to begin in May 2027, his criminal defense attorney Amber Fayerberg confirmed to PEOPLE on Wednesday, March 11. The date is subject to change and could potentially be sooner.

According to the court dockets, the proceedings are scheduled to last three weeks.

Let's hope the trial is held earlier, and most importantly, that Busfield will be convicted and incarcerated for his crimes. Then he can share a cell with Harvey Weinstein.
