Personal life

On August 18, 2005, approximately eight hours of celebrity sex tape starring Sizemore was published on the internet. The material has since become available on DVD. Sizemore married actress Maeve Quinlan in 1996, but divorced in 1999.

Legal Problems

Sizemore, who had long battled drug addiction, was convicted in 2003 of assault and battery against his girlfriend, the former "Hollywood Madam" Heidi Fleiss.Sizemore was then sentenced to 17 months in jail and four months in drug treatment for repeatedly failing drug tests while on probation on March 25, 2005.On June 3, 2005, Sizemore filed a writ of habeas corpus to appeal his conviction of domestic violence against Fleiss, accusing Fleiss of faking a picture of her bruises submitted as evidence during the April 2003 trial.[citation needed] Fleiss testified the photo was taken by a friend named Tara Dabrizzi who left the next day to visit her ailing mother in another country.[citation needed] Dabrizzi never took the stand and Sizemore's attorneys say they were unable to locate anyone with that name.[citation needed] Fleiss allegedly contradicted herself in a civil trial by saying she didn't know who took the photo, according to the Superior Court petition.
On May 8, 2007, while still on probation for a previous drug conviction, Sizemore was again arrested outside the Four Points Sheraton hotel in Bakersfield, California.Police found what appeared to be two bags of methamphetamine and three meth pipes in his 2004 Ford Mustang. Police were called after paroled dealer Jason Salcido challenged a hotel employee to a fight after being refused check-in. Police found a meth pipe on Salcido and found Sizemore waiting in his car outside the hotel. On June 25, Sizemore was sentenced to 16 months, but the sentence was reduced to nine months because he had already served 213 days behind bars. On January 25, 2009, Sizemore, represented by high-profile Beverly Hills attorney Mark McBride, avoided jail-time in the Bakersfield case for an alleged probation violation.
He is currently under investigation by the Los Angeles Police Department for allegedly stealing multiple cell phones from a Verizon store in March 2009. May 28, 2009, Sizemore was arrested in Los Angeles on an outstanding warrant for drug charges. Sizemore was found in the area with a pal. After cops quizzed the pair, it was discovered that there was a $25,000 (£16,600) warrant for the fallen star's arrest. A police search found Sizemore and his friend in possession of narcotics. They were subsequently arrested and booked for the crime.
