Celebrity Domestic Violence On The Rise

A number of celebrities have recently been arrested for domestic violence. Movie stars, athletes and others are increasingly making news for their involvement with spousal abuse.

These arrests highlight just how commonplace domestic violence is in our country. Recently Tito Ortiz, Charlie Sheen and Corey Dillon have all been arrested after their significant others called 911 for help. Charlie Sheen, the mega movie and television star, spent much of last year's Christmas in a Pitkin County jail for an alleged domestic violence incident.

The star of the hit CBS show, “Two and a Half Men”, was arrested by Aspen police after they received a 911 call and an ambulance was sent to a private residence. Charlie Sheen was booked on menacing and criminal mischief and second-degree assault, but later released on an $8500 bond. Tito Ortiz is no stranger to violence. As an Ultimate Fighting Championship super star his job is to use his mixed martial arts skills to fight other men. However, Mr. Ortiz recently found himself in trouble for violence outside of the ring. After a 911 call, police were dispatched to the Huntington Beach home he shares with his porn starlet girlfriend named Jenna Jameson and their two twin boys. After finding visible bruises on Jenna Jameson, Mr. Ortiz was arrested for domestic violence and placed into an Orange County jail. A $25,000 bail was posted and Mr. Ortiz was later released. Retired NFL star, Corey Dillon, was arrested in Calabasas, CA on allegations of spousal abuse in early May 2010. L. A. County Sheriff's Department deputies responded to a 911 call from his estranged wife, Desiree, claiming she had been assaulted. According to the sheriff's report, the wife of the former Bengals and Patriots star running back suffered minor injuries after the couple argued about an impending divorce and child custody issues. Corey Dillon was held on $50,000 bail and later released. Although trouble and fame often go hand and hand, domestic violence seems to be on the rise. Unfortunately for the celebrities and their spouses, domestic violence can leave long lasting scars to a person's career, relationship and well being. Hopefully the disturbing trend will not continue and celebrities will learn that they are not above the law.
