In August 1997, Christian Slater was arrested for assaulting his girlfriend, Michelle Jonas, and a police officer while high on cocaine, heroin, and alcohol. Police were called after neighbors reported loud shouting. Slater reportedly shoved Jonas and bit the officer during the arrest. He was charged with battery, sentenced to 90 days in jail, and served 59 days before being released. Afterward, he attended rehab and anger management. Slater admitted he was spiraling out of control at the time. The arrest hurt his image, but he stayed sober, worked steadily, and later earned praise for roles in Mr. Robot and other projects.
