Dark Secrets The Cast Of Blue Bloods Tried To Hide

Stacy Keach appeared in three episodes of “Blue Bloods” as Archbishop Kevin Kearns. Ironically, the Hollywood veteran had forged a strong connection with God himself several decades earlier, albeit in the most unlikely of circumstances.

Indeed, in the mid-1980s, Keach was sentenced to a six-month stint in Reading Prison after he was caught smuggling 1.3 ounces of cocaine into Britain at Heathrow Airport via two cans of shaving foam. Although the actor would later describe this period as the low point of his life, it was also responsible for helping him to get clean and rediscover his faith: “I was always a Christian,” he told The Washington Post after his release. “But whenever you experience that kind of

shock and trauma, it brings you to your knees.”

In an interview with Fox News, Keach further acknowledged that his time behind bars served him well: “I think subconsciously I was hoping to get caught. I really think it was such a stupid move, I really believe that. As it turns out, looking back, it was the best thing that ever happened to me. It saved my life actually.”
