Actor Jailed Over Failed Drug Test
Actor Tom Sizemore has been jailed for violating his probation by failing a drug test, the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office said Friday.
Prosecutors said Sizemore, 43, who played a battle-hardened sergeant in the movie “Saving Private Ryan,” is required to take the tests as a condition of probation for his convictions on charges of methamphetamine possession and beating his former girlfriend, onetime Hollywood madam Heidi Fleiss.
Prosecutors said Sizemore faked tests by using a clean urine sample hidden in his clothing.
