According to TMZ, Sizemore was taken into custody and booked for misdemeanor domestic violence after he got into an argument with a woman late Wednesday night. His bail was set at $20,000 and he is still currently in police custody, TMZ is reporting.

Sizemore's struggles with the law and with drugs have drowned out his very promising career. Along with frequent drug woes and arrests, he was convicted in 2003 of hitting his girlfriend, Heidi Fleiss.

Sizemore won fans with his gutsy, brute performances in movies like 'Saving Private Ryan,' 'Black Hawk Down' and 'Natural Born Killers.'

Please do not tell me this man has a disease. This ass-hole made all the bad choices in life that one fool can make. He just self destructed via stupid drugs and I bet he started with POT. It amazes me how many stupid people live in the USA. I have no pity or sympathy for this sorry excuse for a man.

Looks like Sizemore is another self-destructive celebrity. If he doesn't land in jail first, maybe he could check himself into rehab like so many other troubled celebrities. Rehab never seems to help them overcome their demons, but it does get them some positive press before the next episode of bad behavior.

Tom! Get your act together. You've nearly torpedoed what passes for your career.
You're not expendable.

This guy sounds like a real jerk. I have to wonder though, if the cops who arrested him also have a history of DV? Police families have 4 times the normal rate of domestic violence. This is a serious problem in law enforcement, but cops stick together & cover for their own. You can read the horror stories and see the tribute to the dead at__BEHINDtheBLUEWALL.BLOGSPOT.COM Also lots of cases on http://www.twitter.com/injusticenews

In one word: DUNCE!

The advice given by some "experts" here reveals their level of total ignorance about drug addiction. Money may provide a fancier rehab center but the rate of success in beating the demons is no greater. Before you flap your lip and judge others, try doing a bit of research. Or better yet, try doing a bit of volunteer work at a rehab center.

This guy has no business taking up our oxygen.

After the first try, rehab is for useless weaklings.

[insert rapid eye blinks of disbelief and chagrin--cute? his profile? are we interested? did you read about this guy or just look at his photo?]

By John Q.

He's still in custody? You mean he doesn't have $20K in his back pocket? That's OK; it probably wasn't his fault, as most celebrities are never held accountable for their actions.

Tom is an incredible actor and I find it really sad that he had been unable to get a grip on his drug habit and overcome his violent tendencies. I hopw he is able to control himself in the future and bless us with another amazing movie performance like Natural Born Killers!!
