Zachery Ty Bryan, known for Home Improvement and Tokyo Drift, received a 16-month sentence after pleading guilty to a 2024 DUI charge in California. The conviction marked his sixth DUI arrest in five years, leading a judge to deny probation as part of the plea deal. Bryan admitted to prior DUI convictions and driving with a blood-alcohol level above 0.15%, per court records.

The actor, 45, rose to fame as Brad Taylor on the ABC sitcom and later starred in films like Tokyo Drift. His legal troubles escalated in January 2025 with a domestic violence charge in Myrtle Beach, S.C., where his fiancée reported being choked and punched. In 2023, he faced misdemeanor harassment and felony assault charges. His probation for a 2020 Oregon strangulation case was revoked after the November 2024 arrest.

Bryan’s fiancée, Johnnie Faye Cartwright, was arrested alongside him in November 2024 on DUI and reckless endangerment charges. His criminal history includes a 2020 Oregon arrest for allegedly strangling a then-girlfriend. The court’s refusal to grant probation underscores the severity of his repeated offenses, raising questions about accountability in Hollywood’s legal landscape.
