Bonsall played the youngest Keaton kid in Michael J. Fox on the 80s sitcom Family Ties. The documentary touched on the pitfalls of fame he encountered, including a DUI prison stint. The actor said he met a man named Nathan Robe while he was in prison. “I remember his crazy eyes,” he said in the documentary.
“I met him in prison in 2004 when I was there for my second drunk driving.
Bonsal told the investigation’s findings that after his release, the woman began telling him that she was trying to put the woman out on a date and pretending to be him.
The actor detailed his encounter with a particular woman.
“She looked at me and said, ‘Yeah, you’re the real Brian Bonsal.’ And I said, “What does that mean?” And she said, “Well, I first dated a nice guy and a guy for three months.” She said he would come and cooperate with her using my name to meet him. ”

He recalls that she told the man “had a bundle of my tattoos in the same place.”
“That was the worst thing you wanted to hear,” Bonsal said in the documentary.
The situation escalated as more and more women began to tell Bonsall about similar incidents, he said.
“I started listening more. My friend said she knew someone she had dated him and that she was locked up in a room and forced to watch porn while she was doing heroin,” he said.

“I went to police in Boulder, Colorado and submitted a report. He said, “It’s not illegal to tell them to have sex with someone else,” the actor told the investigation’s findings.
The actor said that police were not willing to support him at the time, so he and Tuck took matters into their own hands and ultimately sought the FBI’s support. They quickly discovered sexual assault allegations in Kentucky, and the specific woman’s case contained sufficient evidence to tie Bonsal’s claims to the robe, according to US Weekly.
Robe was eventually arrested in 2017 and later convicted, and was sentenced to 274 years in 2019 for raping seven women. According to Arizona Daily Star.
“I don’t like not crying,” Bonsal said in the series.
“I definitely feel guilty. It’s very difficult to explain. Those girls, they wanted to date me because I was a child actor.” (Related: Report: Andrew Tate’s girlfriend Bri Stern files sexual assault reports after alleged choking incident)
