Before The Departed, before Ted, before he was a box office giant, Mark Wahlberg was a teenage felon. In this gripping episode of Hollywood in Handcuffs, we uncover the shocking true crime past of actor and producer Mark Wahlberg. From racially motivated attacks in Boston to a prison sentence at just 16, his dark criminal history is rarely talked about. But it’s all part of the story. This episode explores the violent arrests, hate crimes, and legal controversies Wahlberg faced long before becoming a Hollywood star.

This is true crime meets celebrity scandal. This is pop culture crime.
