Stephen Baldwin's "House Guest" Arrested

2009_07_stephbald.jpg Actor Stephen Baldwin had invited a homeless man to live in the cottage on his Rockland County estate—and now that cops have arrested the man on heroin charges. Apparently Baldwin, aka the youngest Baldwin, met the 51-year-old Jimmy Parks who was living in a tent near a McDonald's in Central Nyack; Baldwin, a born-again Christian, offered him shelter at his home in Upper Grandview. However, police became suspicious after people started to head to the cottage—Parks was allegedly dealing drugs. State Police Capt. Joseph Tripodo said, "Mr. Baldwin didn't have anything to do with this. He's says he's deeply religious and tried to help the guy out. The guy was down on his luck and he loaned him some money and gave him a place to live." Related: The actor has recently been having some mortgage problems.

Classic! This just made my morning, Stephen, you F*ing FOOL!!! HA HA HA!!!

Stephen is the Baldwin that won the nobel prize, right? I'll bet tat his family wishes he would just fall off the wagon already and end this pious bullshit. Bringing home a heroine addict guy that was camping out behind a McDonalds? He's definately trying to get a tax break for opening a shelter in his pool house.

Don't you guys get it?? He's on the dope!

Yeah, that Baldwin. Doesn't he know? Christians can't have Katos.
