After a viral video found “Ned’s Declassified” star Tylor Chase homeless on the streets of California and addicted to meth, actor Shaun Weiss (child star from Mighty Ducks) says he arranged for a detox bed and long term treatment. Tylor was placed on a 72-hour hold – but unfortunately, due to CA’s overly permissive laws on homelessness and addiction, Tylor was “inexplicably released.”
“They were supposed to hold him and then transport him to a detox facility that we had arranged,” Shaun told TMZ. “Instead, they let him out without contacting any of us.”
Weiss, who previously struggled with homelessness and addiction himself, says countless others have tried to help Tylor, including his own family who has reportedly spent tens of thousands of dollars trying to get him to stay in rehab. But Weiss tells TMZ that Tylor’s addiction continues to land him back on the streets, even “smoking meth during the evaluation with no shoes or jacket in the freezing cold.”
Shaun Weiss is an actor best known for his role in The Mighty Ducks films. After years of addiction and homelessness, he famously made a dramatic recovery and returned to acting as an adult. Now Weiss is an advocate for recovery, relapse prevention, and ending addiction-driven homelessness. Learn more at https://shaunweiss.com
