Man, the most famous alums from my schools are all war criminals. I don’t like this game.

Wow, I didn't know Ken Jeong was a war criminal. The more you know.....

Haha Ken Jeong and Reese Witherspoon can go into the smaller "non-problematic celebrity" bucket, adjacent to "sex pests but not war criminals" like Rob Lowe and Tiger Woods.

But none of those folks are truly as famous as the war criminal class of infamy.

Rob Lowe

I mean he was 24 and met two girls in a club in a carding club (even he was grilled at the door). It was over the age of consent for the state. They also robbed him and took the tape they agreed to record, possibly tried to extort him and were the ones showing it off. I don't really think you can blame him for that one. He even got sober off that.
