That's torn it

Corky Siemaszko has an article at NYDailyNews.com about one of Rico's favorite actors going off the rails:

Rip Torn is trying to patch things up with the law by going into rehab. The 78-year-old "30 Rock" actor was packed off to a New York treatment facility after he was arraigned Monday on charges of busting into bank while loaded and armed with a gun.
"Have a nice day," a smiling Torn said after he posted $100,000 bond and was released from the Connecticut clink, where he'd spent the weekend in jail.
Earlier, Torn appeared before a judge wearing cowboy boots and shackles to face charges of trespassing, possession of a firearm without a permit, carrying a firearm while intoxicated, criminal mischief and burglary.
Torn's lawyer insisted the actor wasn't planning a heist when he broke into a bank Friday night in his hometown of Salisbury. "There's an alcohol issue that needs to be addressed," lawyer Thomas Waterfall said. "Obviously, he wasn't there intending to commit a crime, in my estimation."
Torn, whose real name is Elmore Rual Torn, did not enter a plea.
The veteran actor reeked of liqour and was so disoriented he repeatedly asked the state cops who busted him why they were taking him out of his house, court records revealed. Torn had a loaded .22-caliber revolver in his pocket, but never brandished it, Waterfall said.

Rico says 'alcohol issue' is the understatement of the year... But isn't 'wearing cowboy boots and shackles' the latest thing in Hollywood?
