NYPD Blue Star’s Charges DISAPPEAR – Hollywood Magic!

Former “NYPD Blue” star Kim Delaney got hauled to jail after an alleged attempt to run over her husband, only to find the justice system working exactly as designed for Hollywood celebrities – charges magically disappeared faster than her sobriety at a 2011 awards ceremony.

At a Glance

  • Kim Delaney and her husband James Morgan were both arrested after a domestic dispute in Marina Del Rey, with no charges filed due to “insufficient evidence”
  • Delaney was arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon while Morgan was booked for suspected spousal battery
  • This isn’t Delaney’s first rodeo with law enforcement, having a history of DUI arrests, losing custody of her son, and seeking alcohol treatment
  • The Emmy-winning actress and her husband have had a turbulent relationship, with Delaney filing for divorce just five months after their 2022 wedding

Hollywood Justice Strikes Again

Another Hollywood elite manages to dodge the consequences that would flatten any ordinary American citizen. Emmy-winning actress Kim Delaney, best known for playing Detective Diane Russell on “NYPD Blue,” found herself in handcuffs following what authorities described as a domestic dispute with her husband, James Morgan. Both were arrested after deputies responded to a disturbance call at their Marina del Rey home on March 29, but in typical celebrity fashion, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office has decided not to pursue charges against either party.

According to reports, Delaney was arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon while Morgan was booked for suspected spousal battery. How convenient that the evidence suddenly became “insufficient” after both parties were initially deemed arrestable at the scene. One can only imagine if two regular folks from middle America would receive such gracious treatment from our justice system. The double standard is as glaring as the California sun reflecting off the Pacific Ocean near their fancy Marina del Rey address.

A History of Troubles Behind the Glitz

This isn’t Delaney’s first dance with law enforcement or personal drama. Her record reads like a Hollywood cliché – a 2002 arrest for drunk driving, losing custody of her son in 2005 after he testified about her driving under the influence, and a stint in alcohol treatment in 2003. Perhaps most memorably, she was escorted off stage in 2011 after delivering an incoherent speech at an event – a moment that perfectly encapsulates the protected bubble these entertainers live in while lecturing the rest of us about how to live.

You’d think with a resume like that, authorities might take a closer look, but no – both Delaney and Morgan walk away scot-free, with the DA’s office claiming there wasn’t enough evidence. Apparently, whatever was enough evidence to arrest both parties at the scene magically evaporated upon review. Must be nice to have that kind of clout while regular Americans face the full weight of the law for far less serious infractions.

A Marriage Made in Hollywood Hell

The relationship between Delaney and Morgan could give any soap opera a run for its money. They married in October 2022, but Delaney filed for divorce just five months later. She even sought a temporary restraining order against Morgan for alleged domestic violence, which was later dropped. Then, in a twist worthy of her “All My Children” days, the divorce case was removed from the court calendar when Delaney failed to appear for the hearing. Yet somehow they were still living together when this latest incident occurred.

What’s perhaps most irritating about this whole scenario is how it perfectly illustrates the two-tiered justice system that exists in this country. Celebrities with their teams of high-priced lawyers get “insufficient evidence” determinations, while everyday Americans would likely be facing serious consequences, hefty legal bills, and potentially life-altering charges. The fact that Delaney can now return to her cushy job on “General Hospital” like nothing happened is just another reminder that in America 2024, your fame and connections matter far more than actual justice.
