Drug cheats are known to provide fake urine samples. But actor Tom Sizemore has gone one step further – providing a fake urine sample with a fake penis.
Actor Tom Sizemore has been jailed for violating his probation by failing a drug test after he was caught trying to use a prosthetic penis to fake the results, a Los Angeles County prosecutor says.Sizemore, 43, who played a battle-hardened sergeant in the war movie “Saving Private Ryan,” was placed in custody on Thursday. He was ordered to remain behind bars until a hearing on February 24, unless he posts $25,000 (13,500 pound) bond, Deputy District Attorney Sean Carney said on Friday.—-During Thursday’s proceedings, prosecutors told Judge Baretto that Sizemore failed three drug tests in three days, the first after he was caught using a fake penis sewn into his boxer shorts and filled with a clean urine sample kept warm by a heating pack.Carney said the ruse was revealed when the temperature of the sample proved too cool to have come from Sizemore’s body, and he was asked to remove his pants.According to prosecutors, Sizemore had been caught once before trying to use a similar device, sold over the Internet under the brand name the Whizzinator, and had failed drug tests on at least five occasions.
He didn’t happen to be standing near a bottle of ketchup by any chance? *
