Legal issues
On April 5, 2014, Freeman was charged with eight counts of possession of child pornography. On July 30, 2015, he pleaded guilty to all charges as part of a plea bargain, waiving his right to a jury trial. He was sentenced to three years in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. In response, Funimation announced that they had terminated their relationship with Freeman, and his ongoing roles were replaced with other voice actors.[1]
Freeman served his sentence at the Joe F. Gurney Unit in Anderson County, Texas until he was paroled on October 24, 2018. Freeman lived in Papillion, Nebraska from 2018 until 2020.[2][3] As of April 2024[update], he lives in Grove, Oklahoma.[4]
