The crime? On October 12, 2006, Snipes, Eddie Ray Kahn, and Douglas P. Rosile were charged with one count of conspiring to defraud the United States and one count of knowingly making or aiding and abetting the making of a false and fraudulent claim for payment against the United States.

In 1987, the main actor of Inspector Gadget ended an amazing holiday with his former girlfriend in a terrible car accident. The accident occurred when Broderick drove on the wrong-side of a road, colliding with an oncoming vehicle.

Tim Allen was arrested in 1978 at the age of 25 for possessing more than 650 grams of cocaine. He actually ended up going to prison as a result, and served two and a half years.
