Stabbing

刺傷罪

Before rapper Jay-Z became one of the most prominent artists of the current generation and built a billion-dollar net worth with his wife Beyonce, he pleaded guilty to second-degree felony assault with a deadly weapon. Jay-Z reportedly stabbed Lance "Un" Riviera, a record producer, at an album release party. Although little information about the 1999 incident is available, it was reported that the stabbing was a result of the alleged illegal distribution of Jay-Z's album, Vol. 3... Life and Times of S. Carter, prior to its official release.

說唱歌手Jay-Z是當代傑出藝術家，和他的妻子碧昂斯共同建立了價值億萬的網站，但在此之前，他因持致命武器襲擊他人被判二級重罪。據說在一次專輯發行派對上，Jay-Z刺傷了唱片發行人——蘭斯·烏·裏維埃拉。雖然很少有關於這件1999年的刺傷事件的信息，但據說原因是這名發行人在官方發售之前就泄出了Jay-Z的專輯——《第三卷：S·卡特的生活和時代》。

Despite the limited insight into the rapper's motives and exact details of the fracas, it is indisputable that the now-father served three years of probation as a result.

儘管沒有對Jay-Z的動機做調查，這場事故也缺少詳細信息，但毫無疑問的是現在已經爲人父的Jay-Z當初服了3年緩刑。

4 Bruno Mars

4 布魯諾·馬爾斯

Drug Possession

持有毒品罪

Bruno Mars was found in the bathroom of the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, gripping a bag of cocaine. After he'd been in the restroom for a prolonged period of time, the attendant alerted a security guard, to whom Mars handed the drugs when asked if he had any narcotics on his person. After being detained by hotel security, the singer-songwriter was booked into county jail for carrying 2.6 grams of cocaine. Although not nearly as severe as Tim Allen's charges, the possession of cocaine is still a felony, regardless of the amount.

布魯諾·馬爾斯被人發現時，他在硬石賭場酒店（內華達，拉斯維加斯）的洗手間裏，手裏攥着一包可卡因。因爲他去洗手間的時間太長了，服務員通知了安保人員，當安保人員問他是否攜帶有毒品時，他將可卡因遞給了他們。酒店安保扣留他之後，這位歌手兼歌曲作家因攜帶有2.6g可卡因入獄。儘管受到的指控不像蒂姆·艾倫那樣嚴重，但持有可卡因依然是重罪，無論數量有多少。

Mars claimed this was his first interaction with drugs, and the charges were eventually dismissed. Even if no conviction was reached, it might still be difficult not to picture a messy Bruno Mars in a bathroom stall next time "Grenade" comes on the radio.

馬爾斯稱自己是第一次接觸毒品，最終撤消了指控。儘管沒有定罪，但一聽見《Grenade》的旋律，還是忍不住去想象布魯諾·馬爾斯在洗手間裏被人抓到現場的狼狽樣。

3 Matthew Broderick

3 馬修·布羅德里克

Reckless Driving

魯莽駕駛罪

When Matthew Broderick is mentioned, his role as the mischievous (yet harmless) high school-ditching character Ferris Bueller probably comes to mind. Very few envision his reckless driving that resulted in the death of two people in Northern Ireland in 1987. Broderick only suffered a fractured leg and other minor injuries, and actress Jennifer Grey, who was with him, wasn't hurt. Matthew was charged with causing the death of 28-year-old Anne Gallagher and her 63-year old-mother, Margaret Doherty. Broderick's rented BMW hit Gallagher's car head-on.

一提到馬修·布羅德里克，就會想起他扮演的逃學高中生菲利斯·巴勒，一個善良的搗蛋鬼。很難想象他在1987年北愛爾蘭會因爲魯莽駕駛導致2人死亡。布羅德里克在車禍中腿部骨折，還受到幾處輕傷，與他同乘的女演員詹尼佛·格雷沒有受傷。馬修被起訴，罪名是導致28歲的安妮·加拉格爾和她63歲的母親瑪格麗特·多爾蒂的死亡。布羅德里克開着租來的寶馬直直地撞上加拉格爾的車。

The maximum sentence for this charge was up to ten years in prison, but Broderick was eventually convicted of a less severe charge and only fined $175. The family of the victims called this "a travesty of justice" and received no closure, even though they were promised that Broderick would meet with them, hopefully helping them to move on. Broderick did eventually meet with the family in 2002.

布羅德里克面臨最高10年的牢獄之災，但是最終他的判決卻輕得多，只被罰了175美元。受害者家屬稱這是“司法的扭曲”，不接受案子的結束。儘管布羅德里克答應會與家屬見面，以幫助他們走出悲痛，但他在2002年才履行了見面的承諾。

2 Will Smith

2 威爾·史密斯

Assault

企圖傷害罪

In the days following Will Smith's 1989 Grammy for Best Rap Performance, he was arrested for assault, aggravated assault, and criminal conspiracy. Smith (then known as Fresh Prince) allegedly witnessed one of his bodyguards repeatedly assault a record promoter, which resulted in near blindness. In an interview following the incident, Smith made it very clear he had no part in fracturing the victim's eye socket. The charges were eventually dropped.

就在威爾·史密斯獲得1989年格萊美最佳說唱表演獎不久，他就因傷害罪、嚴重傷害罪、共謀罪被捕。據說有人目擊到史密斯（當時藝名還是新鮮王子）的保鏢不斷毆打一名唱片發行人，幾乎導致受害人失明。在後來的採訪中，史密斯明確表態他和此次襲擊沒有任何關係，最終起訴還是被撤銷了。

Will Smith, now married with two children, maintains an active role in popular culture, with his followers having little knowledge of his past criminal allegations.

威爾·史密斯現在已經成家，是2個孩子的父親了，又是流行文化中的中流砥柱，但他的衆多粉絲並不知道他過去還有着這樣的犯罪指控。

1 Matthew McConaughey

1 馬修·麥康納

Drug Possession

持有毒品罪

Actor Matthew McConaughey was arrested late 1999, dazed and confused by his own standards, while dancing naked and playing bongo drums in his West Austin home. Although arrested for suspicion of possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia, McConaughey was later charged only for resisting transportation, a misdemeanor crime. The drug charges were eventually dropped because they weren't supported by the facts provided, and the actor only paid a fine for violating a local noise ordinance.

1999年末，演員馬修·麥康納在他西奧斯丁的家中被捕，以他平時的行爲準則來看，這個事件很令人費解。被捕時他正在裸舞，還打着小手鼓。儘管麥康納因疑似持有大麻和非法藥物被捕，但後來只以拒捕這個輕罪起訴了他。檢方因爲沒有足夠的證據，撤銷了持毒的罪名，只能依據噪音管理條例，對他進行了罰款。

McConaughey, however, failed to comment on his alleged possession of illegal drugs until several years later, which raised sufficient suspicion. Okay—McConaughey's impressive filmography and lack of any of other known criminal activity may make these charges seem forgivable, but has justice truly been served?

麥康納當時並沒有對他所謂的持毒事件作出評論，幾年後纔出來談論這件事，讓人不得不懷疑事件的真相。好吧，麥康納的電影作品實在令人印象深刻，而且他清白的過去也讓這些指控變得可以原諒了，但是正義真的得到伸張了嗎？
