Police reported that his 1998 Honda Accord was parked crooked in front of a fire hydrant, when they decided to investigate. As police approached the car they reported a strong odor of cannabis and then placed him under arrest.

Smith, who had relatively stayed out of the spotlight after the show's end, was sentenced to 6 month drug diversion program for the marijuana offense as well as a 12 hour program for the DUI conviction. As with all DUI convictions, he was also sentenced to 3 years of informal probation.

Marijuana laws are in constant flux, especially after it’s legalization in Colorado & Washington. Contact a local attorney to know your rights about local drug laws as well as state DUI regulations.
