Jackie Chan son, Jaycee, 31, got busted in China for carrying 3.5 ounces of marijuana in his home in Beijing.
Beijing conducted a huge drug crackdown last week, targeting Jaycee's home, that has been reported to be a police target for a few months, after tips of him hiding drugs in his house have been forwarded to the Beijing police.
"Rush Hour" star Jackie Chan wrote a letter to the public after hearing about his Son's situation, essentially blasting him and calling himself out to have "failed" as a father.
"When I first heard the news, I was absolutely enraged" He wrote. Adding,
"As a public figure, I feel very ashamed; as his dad, I'm very sad and disappointed. But the person who feels heartbroken the most is his mom. I hope our younger generation will learn from Jaycee's mistake and stay far away from drug abuse."
The Chinese comedian also called his son out in his letter, "I would like to take this opportunity and say to Jaycee: you've done something wrong and you have to be responsible for the consequences. I'm your dad and I'll always be with you. We will face the road ahead of us together. I should also take some of this responsibility because as his dad, I didn't teach him well. Therefore, on behalf of Jaycee and myself, I extend our deepest apologies to everyone for the negative impact this has caused on society. Thank you."
"Rush Hour" star Jackie Chan has submitted his letter to the open public, and have been reported to be helping out in foundations that take care of the rehabilitation process with people suffering from drug abuse. There have been rumors that his donations to these organizations have amounted to up to fifty thousand dollars, even volunteering to conduct classes himself wherein he'd hold talks to encourage patients to stay off drugs and other factors associated with it.
