Known for: 48 Hours (1982), The Thin Red Line (1998), Warrior (2011) Arrested for: Suspicion of drunk driving Nick Nolte's arrest is infamous not just because of why he was arrested, but for his mugshot that will live on for centuries. On September 11th, 2002, Nick Nolte was pulled over for driving carelessly in Malibu, California. After speaking with Nick, the officer said that he was "completely out of it" and made Nick perform a sobriety test, which he promptly failed. After being taken into custody (and having that infamous mugshot taken), they performed a drug test and found Nick Nolte to be under the influence of GHB, otherwise known as "liquid ecstasy". He pleaded no contest to the charges and was given three years of probation.
