Randy Quaid and Wife Arrested for not Paying Their Hotel Bill

In June, Randy Quaid, 58, and his wife Evi, a former model, reportedly enjoyed a stay at the amazing San Ysidro Ranch in Santa Barbara, California.  They were allowed to stay after their credit card was declined because they promised that a replacement card was on its way.  Their weeklong stay totalled over $10,000.  Felony arrest warrants were issued for the Quaids for burglary, defrauding an innkeeper, and conspiracy. 

The conspiracy is listed on the arrest warrant because the police allegedly believe that the Quaids never intended to pay the hotel bill, there is evidently a prior history of them not paying hotels.  Both bonds are set at $20,000.  Both Quaids were not going to go down easily when caught in Marfa, Texas.  Evi apparently had to be brought to the ground screaming and Randy resisted arrest and reportedly resisted arrest and assaulted the officers both physically and verbally.  No charges are being brought for resisting arrest or assault.  

Randy Quaid is most famous for his roles in the National Lampoons Vacation movies, where he played the crazy cousin Eddie.  Randy's brother is Dennis Quaid.
