Very interesting article: Where is Randy Quaid Now?

Remember Cousin Eddie? Of course you do.

Things have gone South in the past few years for Quaid and his wife and it's worth the read to learn about the weird, wild underbelly of Hollywood....at least the underbelly that Quaid and his wife are convinced exists.

Read the full piece here, and below are two snippets with some of their current legal troubles.

They’re spending nights in their car, on the run from the same shadowy cabal—“the Hollywood Star Whackers”—who may have killed Heath Ledger, possibly sabotaged Jeremy Piven, and could now be targeting Lindsay Lohan. No, this is not the plot of Oscar nominee and Golden Globe winner Randy Quaid’s latest movie. It is what he and his wife, Evi, swear is really happening to them. With the Quaids in Canada, the author probes their nightmare reality, which has alienated friends and family, and turned the couple into outlaws.

The Quaids were arrested in September of 2009 for defrauding an innkeeper, conspiracy, and burglary after skipping out on a $10,000 bill at Santa Barbara’s San Ysidro Ranch hotel; in September of 2010 they were arrested again, for residential burglary and entering a noncommercial building without consent, after squatting in a house in Montecito, California, which they had formerly owned. There was a warrant out for Evi’s arrest on the second set of charges. (The first case was resolved, with the charges against Randy dropped and Evi getting three years probation and 240 hours of community service after they settled their hotel bill.)

Evi had also been charged with resisting arrest at the Montecito house. “They hog-tied me!” she told me.

It's a good read, go on, do it.
