6. Dimitri Diatchenko – Accused of killing his ex girlfriend’s pet rabbit and eating it
If the name Dimitri Diatchenko doesn’t ring a bell then maybe shows like Texas Ranger, How I Met Your Mother and Sons of Anarchy might.

3. Martha Stewart – Insider Trading
I think that this was one of the most famous celebrity cases. There was a lot of interesting things that happened in this case that made it extremely complicated. Stewart made a sale with her biotech company ImClone. The stock dropped two days later and she was able to avoid losing $45,673 by selling the company before everything dropped. Six months earlier Forbes had estimated the loss would have been over $700 million. She was aware of everything that was happening. The investor did not know much about the information she knew in regards to the price dropping. Due to the fact she had the inside knowledge of what was about to happen and selling the company before the drop, she ended up going to federal prison. Everyone knows Stewart for her cooking. She was able to actually host a few cooking shows when she was in prison.

2. Shia Labeouf –Trespassing at Walgreens
Shia Labeouf is known for his roles as Louis Stevens in Even Stevens. He’s also been in many other films such as Disturbia, Surf’s Up and in some of the Indian Jones movies as Henry “Mutt Williams” Jones III. Around 2:25 am he was arrested in Chicago for trespassing at Walgreens. He was in Chicago for filming some of the Indiana Jones movie. He was arrested for not only trespassing but also for appearing to be drunk at the time and he refused to leave Walgreens. Why was Shia Labeouf at Walgreens? He had returned to the store at least three times because he kept on forgetting to buy some cigarettes at the store. I guess they didn’t have the cigarettes at a gas station or a Walmart near him.
