Hicks was arrested on 25th January 2018 in Burbank, California. According to Daily Mail, he was found guilty of robbing 2 older women at gunpoint with his then-girlfriend Danni Tamburo. As Hicks was not mentally healthy, he also obtained mental health services in prison.
He was judged not guilty of two alleged robberies during the trial but guilty of one. So in 2021, he was demanded to remain imprisoned for 5 years while his girlfriend was given 3 years of probation.
However, he was released on parole in March 2022 because the judge gave him credit for 1460 days stating he had already served a significant portion of his penalty before he was officially sentenced.
Though it was the first time he served in jail for a long time, it was not his first arrest. Adam was arrested 2 more times in 2017 for similar allegations.
