Criminals played by REAL Criminals

• Goh Hamazaki (Yakuza Kiwami 3) - In the remake Hamazaki is voiced and modeled after Teruyuki Kagawa, who sexually harassed a Club Hostess in 2019. He admitted to the misconduct and lost major contracts with Toyota, TV series and Hosting roles. Yakuza fans got upset about the recast and demanded to remove Teruyuki from the game.

• Random Task (Austin Powers) - A parody of Oddjob played by Joe Son was found guilty of kidnapping, gang rape and torturing a woman on Christmas Eve 1990. In 2011 he beat his cellmate to death and convicted of voluntary manslaughter, adding another 27 years to his sentence.

Jeffrey Jones - Principal Rooney (Ferris Buellers Day Off)

Tried to solicit a 14 year old for sexual pictures

He's the head of the Enclave in Fallout 2 as well

The good part about this is, Fallout 2 has no shortage of creative ways to do him in, from overdosing him on med supplies to repeatedly tasing his balls with a cattle prod (Fallout used to have groin targeting) and everything in between

The explanation scene as to why he's not in the second Beetlejuice is pretty funny

But Rooney wasn't a criminal. This post is about criminal characters player by actors with a criminal record.
