In 2017, a woman accused Sizemore of abusing her as an 11-year-old during the production of the film “Born Killers.” No charges were filed.

“Tom was one of the most sincere, kind and generous human beings I have had the pleasure of knowing,” Lago wrote Friday. “His courage and determination through adversity was always an inspiration to me. The past couple of years were great for him and he was getting his life back to a great place. He loved his sons and his family. I will miss my friend Tom Sizemore greatly.”
