Since her release, Fleiss’ life has been filled with drama. She dated actor Tom Sizemore, 60, eventually accusing him of domestic abuse. He was later sentenced to 17 months in jail for violating probation.

In 2009 — a year after she was arrested on drug charges and sentenced to probation — Fleiss appeared on season 3 of VH1’s Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew. Four years later, she was charged with possession of marijuana with the intent to sell. The charges were later dismissed.

Since then, Fleiss, 56, has kept a low profile, but remains a strong proponent of legalizing prostitution. “Sex for money will happen no matter what,” she’s claimed. “You can’t stop sex.”
