'Criminal Minds' Season 10 News: Will CBS Procedural Drop Actor Playing Kevin Lynch?
Nicholas Brendon, who plays Kevin Lynch on Criminal Minds, has been in a whole lot of legal trouble lately and his unruly behavior in real life might take a toll on the professional sphere.

The actor has been in the news for his arrests, usually on charges of grand theft, with three instances in a span of six months, two of which were only set a month apart. Brendon is also known to have some issues requiring medication, and struggled with alcohol. We wonder how he gets any work done at all, and also how the CBS procedural has been taking the bad rep he might have been giving the show.
Bredon's character Lynch is not one of the main fixtures on the series. He is something of a computer geek on the series and is romantically involved with Penelope Garcia (Kirsten Vangsness). So it shouldn't be too hard for the producers to write him out of the script.

Brendon, who's probably most well known for playing Xander on Joss Whedon's Buffy The Vampire Slayer series, was arrested on March 13 on charges of grand theft and "criminal mischief" while attending the ALTCon conference in Florida. The actor had called the police to help track his phone and wallet which he believed had been stolen from his hotel. When the cops arrived at the scene, it was reported that the actor's room was in a wrecked state and the wallet was in the room. This might have been a case of deja vu for the actor as just last month he had been arrested in Florida on similar charges, in a similar situation.
He was picked up by the police on grand theft felony charges in Fort Lauterdale, Florida. The actor was in town for Shock Pop Comic Con, and was charged with damages to his hotel room which came up to $450.
According to a Zap2it report, the actor had notoriously tweeted about his dismal state a few hours before his arrest:
"Hey Twatters! I'm stuck in Ft Lauderdale w/no per diem. No hotel. No ride to the airport. Thanks @Shockpopcc."
