The Ring’s Daveigh Chase past revealed after star charged with drug possession
The Ring star Daveigh Chase has been officially charged for possession of a controlled substance.
According to The Blast, on November 6, the actress was hit with two misdemeanor charges of possession of a controlled substance without a valid prescription and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Chase, 28, is facing one year in jail on the charges and a fine of up to $1,000, The Blast reported.
The judge also ordered a warrant for law enforcement to lock up Chase if they come into contact with her.
The star played The Ring’s Girl in the Well, Samara, aged 12, and voiced Lilo in Disney’s Lilo and Stitch.
She was first arrested on August 6 on a misdemeanor count of possession of a controlled substance.
Chase was arrested by LAPD Hollywood and booked into jail – she spent two hours locked up. She was released on $1,000 bond.
Then in November 2017, Chase was jailed when police pulled her over after joyriding in an allegedly stolen car.
She was booked on a felony charge of driving in a car without the owner’s consent.
Ten months before that, Chase was detained by LAPD detectives after she left a dying man in a car outside a hospital in the early hours of February 15, 2017.
Police ran her name and discovered an outstanding misdemeanor traffic warrant out for her, which lead to her arrest.
The man was pronounced dead of a suspected overdose.
Chase was not named a suspect in his death, or accused of playing any role in it.
TMZ.com, at the time, reported they’d been hanging out together in the hours before, and Daveigh reportedly said she was, "merely trying to get him help at the hospital".
Chase got her break in Donnie Darko as Samantha Darko in 2001.
She had a recurring role in HBO’s Mormon drama Big Love as child bride Rhonda Volmer. She also voiced Chihiro in the English version of Hayao Miyazaki’s Spirited Away.
She was cast in Lilo & Stitch as Lilo, before she starred in The Ring.
The movie, directed by Gore Verbinski and starring Naomi Watts, Martin Henderson, David Dorfman, and Brian Cox, was a remake of the 1998 Japanese horror movie based on Koji Suzuki’s novel.
The first movie was soon followed by The Ring Two in 2005 and Rings in 2017.
