WESTON, FL – Cuban-American actor William Levy has been arrested in Weston, Florida, on charges of disorderly intoxication and trespassing, marking another legal setback for the once-beloved telenovela star. The 44-year-old actor, known for roles in Resident Evil: The Final Chapter and Dancing with the Stars, was booked into Broward Main Jail on Monday and is currently being held without bond as he awaits trial.
Details of the william levy Arrest
According to CBS News, Levy was taken into custody on two misdemeanor charges:
Disorderly intoxication in a public place (Florida Statute 856.011)
Trespassing in an occupied structure or vehicle (Florida Statute 810.09)
While specific details of the incident remain undisclosed, jail records confirm both charges are pending. A booking photo shared by Las Top News on Instagram showed Levy looking visibly distressed.
Potential Legal Consequences
If convicted, Levy could face:
Up to 60 days in jail for disorderly intoxication
Up to one year behind bars for trespassing
Legal experts suggest that as a first-time offender, Levy may avoid jail time and instead receive probation, fines, or mandatory rehab. However, the lack of bond raises questions—whether it’s due to a prior probation violation or a judge’s concern over repeat behavior.
A History of Personal and Legal Struggles :-
This isn’t Levy’s first brush with controversy. Earlier in 2024, police were called to his home after his then-partner, actress Elizabeth Gutiérrez, reported him heavily intoxicated and in the company of another woman. Though no charges were filed, the incident sparked backlash on social media.
The couple, who had been together since 2003, officially separated in May 2024 after more than two decades. They share two children: Christopher (18) and Kailey (14).
