Prison
In 2002, Dalton was convicted of possession of the drug GHB. In 2004, a female friend, Marcy Lopez, testified that he had assaulted her and a judge revoked Dalton's probation and sentenced him to 5 years in prison. After serving thirteen months of his sentence, he was released on parole in November 2005. Speaking to a reporter from the Dallas Voice, a local LGBT newspaper, he stated that the worst part of being in prison was not being able to work out and the "horrible food". Dalton said that he would cut down on partying and hoped to return to work modeling in bodybuilding magazines and acting in videos.
In 2007, Dalton's manager, David Forest, confirmed that Dalton has been re-arrested and incarcerated in Denton County Jail related to a 31 May 2007 altercation; he was charged with Assault/Family Violence and interfering with a 911 call. He made $7500 bail but failed to report the arrest to his parole officer, and a warrant was issued for his arrest from the parole office 11 June. Two days after his parole arrest (13 June), he was transferred to the county facility, but as of Forest's arrest confirmation no charges had been filed.
