Randy Quaid might as well have his criminal attorney on speed dial and ready to leap into action, which is just as well, given his never-ending legal troubles. Randy and his second wife, Evi Quaid, have a rap sheet that is as confusing as it is lengthy, backdating a decade and a half and spanning two countries.
Randy and Evi began their criminal capers in 2009. TMZ reported they were busted for allegedly defrauding a San Ysidro innkeeper after hot hoofing without paying a $10,000 bill. Arrest warrants were issued, but the two went on the run, hiding out in Marfa, Texas. The long arm of the law eventually caught up with them, though, and they were apprehended. However, they didn’t go quietly. Evi allegedly verbally and physically assaulted one of the cops.
Per ABC News, the Quaids bonded out. Still, they repeatedly missed their scheduled court appearances, landing them a short stay at the Santa Barbara County Main Jail. When they eventually came before the judge in April 2010, charges were dropped against Randy. TMZ reported that Evi pled “no contest,” was placed on probation and ordered to complete 240 hours of community service. It was business as usual again within months, though. In September 2010, Randy and Evi were slapped with burglary and vandalism charges after hunkering down in the guest house of a home they used to own. They bonded out but failed to appear in court, according to Reuters.
