District failed to notify Selleck of water theft allegations sooner, lawyer says

The curtain appeared to fall this week on Tom Selleck’s latest role: that of the suspected recipient of unlawful water deliveries.

The Calleguas Municipal Water District had accused the “Magnum P.I.” and “Blue Bloods” star of having truckloads of water from its district delivered to his estate, a violation of local law because his home sits in Hidden Valley, outside Calleguas’ boundaries, according to a complaint filed in Ventura County Superior Court.

To track the deliveries over the last two years — during which Californians have coped with a worsening drought — the district hired a private investigator.
