Description
They're standing in front of a police camera in their undershirts, blinking through an alcoholic stupor, being charged with everything from spousal abuse to DUI. From the police blotters of Hollywood to police blotters from around the world, ace law enforcement writer Marilyn Olsen has scoured the files of America's finest to bring us Arrested!. a compendium of celebrity arrests -- including mug shots where available -- for everyone who's tired of seeing the stars at their polished best. So you knew that Hugh Grant had been arrested for "lewd conduct, " Pee Wee Herman for "exposure, " and O.J. Simpson for a murder charge of which he was later acquitted. But did you know that Tim Allen served time for drug-related charges, Donnie Wahlberg was arrested for first-degree arson, and Winona Ryder was arrested several times for shoplifting? Needless to say, the fact that these stars were arrested doesn't mean that they were charged or convicted. But, from Robert Downey, Jr. to mega-billionaire Bill Gates, public figures just can't seem to keep from winding up in police custody. Guaranteed to surprise and entertain, Arrested! exposes the brightest stars at their darkest moments.
