‘Star Trek: Voyager’ Actress Jennifer Lien Arrested for Indecent
Exposure
by Alex Stedman

“Star Trek: Voyager” actress Jennifer Lien was arrested and has been
in custody for two weeks after allegedly exposing herself in front of
several children, Roane County police confirm.

Lien has been charged with two misdemeanor counts of indecent exposure
in an incident that happened on Aug. 31 in Harriman, Tenn.

A neighbor of Lien’s made a complaint to police after Lien began a
tirade due to a crying child, and during her tirade, exposed her
breasts and buttocks. The neighbor stated that she had three children
in the yard while this was happening.

According to a Roane County Sheriff’s Office report, when police
appeared on Sept. 3 with a warrant, Lien was not wearing clothes and
resisted arrest.

“The offender stated she wasn’t going any f–king where and we needed
to leave her alone,” reads the police report by responding officer
Billy Walker.

Lien also threatened to have the officers shot and killed, says the
police report. She was transported to the patrol car and taken to the
Roane County Jail, and is scheduled to appear in court on Dec. 7.

The actress appeared on “Star Trek: Voyager” from 1995 to 2000 as Kes.
Her other credits include “American History X,” “Accidents Don’t
Happen,” “Men in Black: The Series,” “Battle Force: Andromeda” and
voice work in “Lion King 2: Simba’s Pride.”

This isn’t Lien’s first run-in with the law. In April, she was
arrested and charged with evading arrest, resisting arrest, reckless
endangerment and aggravated assault.

Wow. I had never heard a thing about her in her private life but this is
rather unexpected. I don't remember any other Star Trek actor ever
behaving so oddly. Sounds like she has some ongoing issues of some kind....

She looks like a Dyke now, nothing like her former self. Maybe

This is really different than the first article I read, that said they
were just there to deliver a summons, and she was naked under a blanket
on the couch. Why they wouldn't just *leave* the summons and go away
was the question ...

It's long been said that she was a cocaine addict on the show and her
attempts to kick the habit resulted in the weight gain (see the later
Voyager episode 'Fat Evil Kes Returns').

Her last credit on IMDb is a tiny role in 2001, so something happened ...

Here's her booking photo after the 2012 arrest for domestic assault:

She was kind of cute years ago, so wouldn't that be decent exposure?

She exposed herself in her own yard?

Maybe if they'd allowed her to dress first, she wouldn't have resisted.

Wow. How did they fail to include hindering prosecution, wasting police
time, obstruction of justice, and jaywalking? Was the assault committed
with her left boob or her right boob?

Her face looks just like it always did:

Her neck is bigger, likely simply a matter of weight gain and age.

Oh my GOD!!! What the fuck happened!!?!? She was the cutest "Star
Trek" actress until Nicole de Boer came along on "Star Trek: Deep
Space Nine" (Ezri Dax). Even Linda Hamilton looks better than Lien
now!!

http://tinyurl.com/ntkk4d4

Its a shame, a crying shame. She's still only 41, but she looks like
she could be in her early 60's in that mugshot.

Looking at imdb, she hasn't worked on a film or on a TV show since the
year 2003. This is the pic they're using to illustrate her
filmography. She was about 37 at the time:

I would guess drugs, or maybe mental illness (that could cause her to
neglect her looks). I have no evidence of either, just a guess.

Police overreaching and overcharging...probably to initiate a court
agreement for rehab in exchange for dropped charges down the road.

I checked out imdb too. In the pic the imdb has of her in the article
about her she looks great. Overweight but still quite pretty:

http://tinyurl.com/plzyfkd

I would gladly ask her out on a date based on that pic, which
according to the copyright was taken in 2012 when she was still about
37-38 years old and she looks younger than that! I would've said late
20s if I didn't know her (and she is wearing clear braces as well)

Side note: since when does simply having long hair as a male equate
with 'transitioning'?

Second side note: Jennifer Lien must live in a *really* bad
neighborhood since apparently none of her neighbors can even afford cell
phones with cameras/video. Hmmm, come to think of it, where are the
dashcam/bodycam videos from the police?

Yeah, I figured there was a reason she left the show, mid-stream, and

Yes, obveeus. I'm sure her health and well-being are the first thing
on the minds of the police sent in to arrest her for specious reasons.
Yes, criminalizing addictive behavior over many many decades has definitely
been the cure for every single case of criminal addiction out there.

It's a demand to appear in court, probably for a petty offense. I
have no idea if a summons could be used for an allegation of a misdomeanor.

A parking ticket is a summons, I guess.

To arrest her in her own home would require serving her with a warrant,
assuming she's being charged with a felony.
