Designer John Galliano... Guilty

Galliano not guilty of any fashion fines, but guilty of hate crimes according to Forbes. The former Dior designer to the stars and others who can afford it, was convicted of making racist remarks and anti-Semetic comments today in a Paris court. He was fined $8,500 (which is 6,000 euros), one symbolic euro ($1.40 - talk about assault) to each plantiff and 16,500 euros ($23,200) for court costs. Now the 6,000 euros he was fined is a conditional fine. If John is not found guilty of any crimes for five years in France, that fine is suspended.

Backstory:
On a couple different occassions, John assaulted some people. On February 24th 2011, he was arrested and accused of assaulting two people at a french cafe. On Oct 8th 2010, he allegedly (at the time) verbally attacked a 40 year old woman also at the same french cafe, La Perle. The conviction and fines are a result of these actions.

He also loves Hitler.
