There was nothing cooler in the 1980s than 'Miami Vice' it was the best cop show on television, and did a lot for the way that 80s fashion turned out. The original show is still fondly remembered by audiences, and had a spark and charm that was singularly lacking from the 21st-century movie remake, of which the less is said, the better. Don Johnson was one of the stars of the show, but while he may have been a police officer on television, he was accused of a serious crime in 2002.
Johnson found himself charged with money laundering - a charge he denied, and was ultimately cleared of, but not without unwelcome attention falling on his personal finances. His much-loved home in Colorado was within 24 hours of being foreclosed when he somehow came up with $14.5m to repay debts owed against it in 2008, and it's believed that he took on more debt to help him pay that bill. A more recent $19m court case victory against a former production company he worked with has eased his woes since.
