Cops Swarm The 7th Heaven Dad's House Last Night After Reports He Killed Himself, Turns Out He's Still Alive And It's Pretty Awkward That We All Assumed He Had Put A Gun In His Mouth

Stephen Collins‘ house has been swarmed by LAPD officers after someone in the news media claimed to have heard a shot … but TMZ has learned the actor is not at home and he’s fine. Reporters staked out Collins’ San Fernando Valley home Tuesday night … in the wake of TMZ’s story about Collins confessing to molesting and/or exposing himself to young children. One of Collins’ neighbors — actress Donna D’Errico — tweeted a photo showing at least 6 LAPD units and wrote that the actor shot himself. But sources directly connected to the actor tell us … Collins is NOT at home and has been in communication all night.

Well that has to be incredibly awkward no? Rumor starts on the internet that you killed yourself after the world finds out you’re a crazy pedophile, cops show up to your house to pick up your dead body, and you’re just like nope, haven’t done it yet guys! But I totally understand why everyone in the world would think that!

What is that conversation even like?

-Mr. Collins, we have reports that you’ve killed yourself.

-But I’m still alive

-Alright cool, we’ll be back tomorrow when you actually grow a pair of balls and go through with it.

Just can’t be good for the already demented psyche to have everyone just assume you committed suicide. I saw this rumor and immediately thought, yup, that seems like the most logical ending to the story and I’m sure I wasn’t the only one. So good luck with the whole pedophile thing Stephen Collins, and let us know when you finally do put a gun in your mouth so we can all make some shitty 7th Heaven pun after your death.
