Amber Siyavus, who rose to fame for her appearance in Big Brother Season 8, had a string of legal troubles in the years before her sudden death. The reality TV star had felony convictions for forgery and a wild run-in with police. Now, days after her sudden death, the cases have come to light. According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Amber had already pleaded guilty in 2020 to the charge of attempting to resist an officer with a dangerous weapon.
According to the court records, prosecutors claimed she tried to drive away while a Henderson, Nevada, cop was partially inside her vehicle. Amber Siyavus received a suspended prison sentence of 19 to 48 months and up to 4 years of probation. She was also ordered to undergo evaluation for her mental health and substance abuse.
For the unversed, Amber Siyavus rose to prominence when she competed in Season 8 of the reality TV show Big Brother. Beyond the cop case, she pleaded guilty to felony forgery in September 2020 over Western Union money orders, earning another suspended prison sentence and up to 2 years of probation. However, by 2023, she was no longer under court supervision for any of the offenses.
