Stephen Collins' divorce has been settled with his wife Faye Grant and the divorce settlement provides every copy of the Collins' audio in which he confesses to child molestation must be destroyed, with the exception of the original.
Grant must deliver the tape to Collins' lawyer, Shawn Holley, who will keep it under lock and key for 10 years and only release it if there's a subpoena, TMZ.com reported.
The 67-year-old actor and Grant alongwith their lawyers spent few days trying to hammer out the settlement, to avoid what was certain to be an ugly, public trial set for February 9th.
Collins and Grant were ready to address the audiotape in which Collins confesses to molesting and/or exposing himself to 3 young girls.
