Prosecutors have accused Seagal of defrauding Wyoming businesses of more than $212,000. If convicted, the 30-year-old California man could face up to 141 years in prison.
According to a report in the Daily Mail, Seagal posed as a wealthy businessman in an attempt to buy millions of dollars worth of real estate in the Jackson Hole area, leaving behind a pile of unpaid bills at luxury resorts and businesses.
Judge Bill Simpson issued arrest warrants in all 50 states after Seagal failed to appear in court on Wednesday and reportedly failed to turn in his passport as ordered.
Feeling betrayed, Irwin sent Seagal a message: "You lied to me and I don't believe anything you say anymore." Irwin is now considering filing bankruptcy due to the financial damage.
Investigators have uncovered a pattern of fraudulent activity throughout Wyoming. Seagal reportedly stayed at the luxury Amangani Resort with his mother and a friend, and reportedly left a bill for $2,725.76.
At Spring Creek Ranch, three cards he used for bills totaling more than $22,000 were reported to be fraudulent. It was also reported that he left with an unpaid bill of $3,055.28 from the Mangy Moose Saloon.
The alleged fraud extended to the personal level as well. Prosecutors say Seagal hired a man to buy a DJI drone in Colorado, promising to reimburse him for the cost, and then wrote him a check for $3,281.46, which was not credited to him. bounced.
In another incident, he sent a courier to Los Angeles to retrieve a Dodge car, promising to pay for return flights that were allegedly never purchased. The men were trapped and had to buy their own tickets home, with Seagal later sending them a fake screenshot of a bank transfer to cover their $3,101 expense.
This isn't Seagal's first legal trouble. Court documents obtained by the Daily Mail show he was previously hit with a civil lawsuit in which he was accused of falsely claiming he owned stocks worth more than $340 million and a successful rental property company in Los Angeles.
