Greene has continued to maintain a steady career as a character actor but has never broken into starring roles.
On July 24, 2007, he was arrested in New York for two bags of crack cocaine in a hand-to-hand deal in Manhattan's Alphabet City around 5:50 PM on Tuesday. What's more, the arrest report says that a police officer recovered "two plastic bags ... from defendant's front jeans pocket." Arraigned on possession of crack-cocaine.
On August 29, 2007, Greene was involved in an apparent theft of a license plate from the parking garage of a Hollywood building where he once lived. He was seen on surveillance cameras entering the building, then going to the laundry room and putting on a ski mask before entering the parking garage. A resident later found their car was missing a license plate, and reported it to the building maintenance staff. They reviewed the tape, and recognized Greene. After speaking with a friend of Greene's who still lives in the building, the license plate was reportedly returned by an anonymous woman. The matter has now been turned over to the police.
