People from all walks of life commit crimes. But when these people happen to be in the public eye, it provides a new level of fascination. These individuals are not your typical next-door neighbor or someone you ride the subway to work with each day--these are more widely known faces, even household names and celebrities. We always hear about "famous" criminals like O.J. Simpson, Phil Specter, and Sid Vicious. But there are plenty of other public figures, both contemporary and historical, who have traveled down that very murky pathway toward criminality. Power, status, and money aren't barriers to criminal behavior. In fact, it's often just the opposite.
