Dixon has a history of drug addiction and petty crime, his record includes: possession of crack cocaine in 1998 and assault in 2004. He is said to have smoked PCP since he was five, and lost his virginity to his mother at the age of nine.
Events of GTA V
By 2013, Dixon has gone into acting and is set to star in a reality show that he's interviewed about on Chattersphere. Between 2008-2013, he was married to Cloe, but they ended up divorced.
