"....Viewers might recall that despite Wilson's troublemaking and confidence in his abilities (that some might consider arrogance); he also frequently spoke sweetly of his young son...."

As the mother of three chefs--one a pastry chef, SHAME!!!!!

Wilson has lived in California, France, Brazil and Texas. Quite a CV. I hope his contacts with children are being thoroughly checked out.

How in the world? How do you even think of 2 yos having sex? O man, just depraved. So sick, these sickos are everywhere!

Little 2 year olds don't "have sex", Peazzzer. They are raped, sad to say. In a case I wrote about a couple of months ago, a detective stated that some of the newest and most vile child *advertiser censored* shows infants being raped just after birth....with their umbilical cords still attached. I don't want to know this. I have precious grandbabies. But we have to bear witness and shine the light on this filth.

What a creep.

He is free on a 10K Bond??? Lucky man.

I liked Morgan. He used his looks and his charm a lot. With Adult Women.

Bravo still has his bio up-He was with Top Chef Just Desserts.

OMG!!

I watched that season and thought Morgan was talented, but his arrogance and lecherous/creepy-vibe always put me off. And now to find out he lives in my area...YIKES!

If these charges are true, then I hope he gets his croquembouche on behind the safety of prison walls from now on. :tsktsk:

That is one sick, disgusting smirk on that face of his.....
I was a fan of him on the show.....now I feel so sick.
It's odd how he was arrested over a year ago but we're just now hearing about it.

I thought he was arrogant and creepy too. Just shows to go ya, trust your gut.

He was initially arrested in Dec. 2010. I wonder why it took so long to get out in the news.

I wondered the same thing Ohio. IIRC the article indicated that there was a grand jury indictment, so perhaps that was the delay. Ducks in a row...

He was to go before a judge on the 27th...anyone know what happened?

Add me to the list who thought Morgan was kinda creepy..
