Daniel Baldwin has been a naughty boy. He was supposed to show up to court this morning at 10:00AM for a hearing but didn't show up because he's in Toronto shooting a movie.

Baldwin wasn't even supposed to leave the country without getting it cleared through the court first, so the judge revoked his probation.

Baldwin's probation officer also snitched on the actor revealing that he missed an appointment on December 5 and several AA meetings. I say throw the book at him, these celebs need to understand that they're not above the law. Daniel Baldwin

He was the team captain of "The Eastsiders" which also featured rapper Biz Markie, plus-size model Mia Tyler, and actor Joe Gannascoli (later traded for Judge Mabalean Ephriam from Divorce Court).


[edit] Personal life
A one-time sports handicapper, Baldwin is divorced from Cheryl Baldwin (they met in high school), by whom he has a daughter, Kahlea (born in 1983). Kahlea moved to California to pursue a career in fashion and film. In 1990 he married actress Elizabeth Baldwin; they had a daughter Alexandra in 1994 before divorcing in 1996. Alexandra moved to England with her mother and Step father and now lives in Bonita Springs Florida. Since 1994, he has been involved with his Homicide: Life on the Street co-star, Chicago-born actress Isabella Hofmann, by whom he has a son, Atticus (born on July 13, 1996), who was named after the crusading lawyer in "To Kill a Mockingbird".

Baldwin spent two weeks at now-defunct treatment center Anacapa by the Sea in Port Hueneme, California, for treatment of addiction to cocaine. In 1998, he was found running naked through the halls of New York's Plaza Hotel, and arrested for possession of cocaine. He pled guilty to disorderly conduct and was sentenced to three months in drug rehab. He later told People magazine he had been battling a cocaine addiction since 1989. On April 22, 2006, Baldwin was arrested after police received a call that a woman had been threatened at the Ocean Park Motel in Santa Monica.[4] Authorities subsequently declined to press charges.

Baldwin was arrested on July 19, 2006, after he crashed his Ford Thunderbird into two cars parked on a Los Angeles street. According to the police, Baldwin ran a red light after weaving through the traffic in West LA just before 1 pm. He then crashed his rented Ford Thunderbird into two parked cars while going 80 mph in a 35 mph zone. Jason Lee, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles police, said "The Thunderbird pushed one of the vehicles about 20 feet, and that was a Hummer." Police say Baldwin was driving with a suspended license, at the time of the crash. He was transferred to UCLA Medical Center with back and neck injuries, but did not appear to be seriously hurt.[5]

On November 7, 2006, Baldwin was arrested in Santa Monica, CA, after allegedly stealing a white GMC Yukon SUV, according to TMZ.com. The actor was taken to jail and booked for investigation of grand theft auto. Bail was set at $20,000. "The car belongs to an acquaintance of Mr. Baldwin, but he had no permission to take it," said Jim Amormino, a spokesman for the Orange County sheriff's department.[6][7]

On February 6, 2007, an arrest warrant was issued for Baldwin in Newport Beach, CA, by the Orange County Superior Court for his failure to show up for an arraignment stemming from an auto-theft charge.[8] At the time, Baldwin was in Detroit, Michigan filming a movie. He turned himself into police on February 20 and pleaded not guilty to his charges. He remains free on bail.
