Busey was attending as a guest, and was being paid by attendees for meet and greets, autographs and professional photo-ops.

"Busey, 78, was charged Friday with two counts of fourth-degree criminal sexual contact, one count of attempted criminal sexual contact and one count of harassment, Cherry Hill police said Saturday."

According to Facebook group devoted to Monster-Mania Con, one user wrote on August 13th: Please be mindful if you are a woman and seeing Gary Busey. He was a complete asshole and very inappropriately touching yesterday. He blatantly touch my friends upper thigh and her boobs. We heard from others that she was not the only one that this happened too.

Another said: I saw Garry Busey yesterday as well as my girlfriend and he touched her thigh in a weird way and yelled at me multiple times for no reason at all, he’s not right in the head and shouldn’t be aloud back.
