I hope some of the posters who adore Dick read this. I do like Dick and I have read this and I agree that Charges don't = convictions Not to mention the last arrest was 6 years ago, driving with an invalid license...ohhhhhh noooooo..hide the women and children. People make very bad mistakes in their lives when I don't personally know one thing about these charges does not change my mind about said person. I have a nephew who's drunk wife had him arrested for pushing her away after she got in his face and hit him..he was not convicted because he didn't commit a crime. Do I condone DUIs? No, but getting one means you acted stupid not that you are a bad person. If someone must find out if someone has been arrested perhaps finding out if any of those arrests were convictions, or if they were even felonies, would be the truthful thing to do. Personally I don't care enough about it.

I guess no one here has done anything wrong that they have possibly regretted. That list shows no arrests since '02. Maybe he's seen the error of his ways.

I'm not saying he does equal OJ...I'm just saying to use the ol "how many convictions" question doesn't fly anymore. It should, we do live in the USA and we are innocent until proven guilty...so they say, but really in today's world the media tries people and that's just the way it is. I know, I'm making a stupid argument, but really, getting arrested for the things that are listed above pretty much tell the tale. Whether he was convicted or not, there was some reason to arrest him in the first place. Police don't just randomly arrest and charge. They do it with probable cause. JMHO. Please don't kill me for my opinion.

Irrespective of whether Dick was convicted on these charges..... how many of are the least bit surprised he was accused of these offenses? Not I.

EM, my aunt was murdered in Feb. by an ex husband who was never convicted of spousal abuse. So that's where I am coming from. I'm sure I'll be deleted yet again.

The only people who wouldn't want me on a jury would be a proven criminal. No one else need to worry.

This thread has been moved to the "Outside the House" section of Big Brother as it is mainly discussing events outside of the house.

Police don't just randomly arrest and charge. They do it with probable cause. You must not live in California..

Not surprised. Dick has laughed and made jokes about Spousal Abuse a few times in the house. Especially when playing that silly Marry-Sleepwith-Throwoffbridge game. a few times he had said that if he was married to Kail or Jen he'd be jailed for spousal abuse. Not that he'd be TEMPTED to do it, but he WOULD be jailed. <77> Just sayin <77> Yeah, the guy could talk himself out of charges, it doesnt mean it didnt happen

Of course we want to vilify Dick. There has to be a villin in every year of BB. There is not one woman on this earth that deserves to be called a crusty c***. Not one. I didn't mind the verbal attacks at first, but he's gone way over the line.

I'm not here to defend Dick, but profiling is not good, why because he works in a Bar and Has Tattoo's?? Because he poured tea on someones head? called people names? Is it's his game that warrants this?? or his looks?

This thread is about the arrest record of Dick, not about profiling. Period.

Ss I am not profiling. I think without the actions Dick looks kind of cool. I like tatts and my own son works in a bar. I dislike him because of his threatening comments toward Jen. They are frightening to me and obviously to others. I didn't need to see his arrest record to form that opinion. I am judging him on his actions in the house.

Please be advised: 1 - you should not believe everything that is posted on the internet. We have no idea if this list is accurate. 2 - This thread is "Outside the House" just as the prior "alleged" arrest records of HGs in seasons past have always been. Our decision to put this thread Outside the House stands. Thank you.

There is no California penal code 253.5. http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/cgi-bin/calawquery?codesection=pen&codebody=&hits=20 I have heard this is bogus. Is pot usually a term used in arrest records?

By the way anyone with two DUIs on there record is clearly an alcoholic. Kind of bad that he still drinks regularly and is a bar manager.
