Duane Chapman, now 70, appeared on A&E's Take This Job in August 2003, where he was showcasing his bail bond company. This would be the unofficial pilot for his own TV series Dog the Bounty Hunter, which premiered the following year. However, the performance, which also starred his late wife Beth Chapman, a slew of his 13 children, and some of his fellow bounty hunters crew, was marred with rumors. After a recording of Dog going on a racist tirade was leaked, A&E put the show on hold for three years. He returned to his show, and it will continue to air until 2012. Despite a few attempts at a revival with spinoff series Dog and Beth, Dog's Most Wanted, and Dog Unleashed, he struggled to be on televisions. Ultimately, the reality television star couldn't get out ahead of his slew of scandals ranging from owing millions in taxes to detentions to lawsuits. Now that it has been 20 years since his show first airing, here are the scandals he has been involved in since.
