His first problem occurred in 2012 when he was arrested in Miami Beach, Florida for driving under the influence. A few months later, he was stabbed when he attempted to intervene in a fight during a party at his residence, with an investigation resulting in three charges including illegal possession of an assault weapon, later reduced to misdemeanors. The following year, a vehicle accident led to suspicion of him driving under the influence and possession of marijuana, and he subsequently voluntarily entered a rehabilitation facility, and was put on an indefinite leave of absence from his team.

In 2014, Smith was struck again at Los Angeles International Airport, when he became uncooperative with a TSA agent who claimed that he was carrying a bomb, proved inaccurate and charges filed against him were later dropped, but he was then suspended for nine games during the season. The following year, he was arrested for an alleged hit and run, driving under the influence, and vandalism charges, which saw him released by the 49ers. While he had no incidents in 2016, problems surfaced once again in 2017, when he was arrested by San Francisco police suspected of being under the influence, but was released after questioning. Later in the year, he pleaded No Contest to a hit and run incident from two years prior, in exchange for the DUI charges to be dropped. He was sentenced to 20 days in jail and attended a treatment facility. He also underwent management classes, and was later banned from establishments where alcohol was the primary commodity.

His most recent incident came in 2018 when his wife called the police, stating that Aldon consumed multiple bottles of tequila before biting her on her wrists – Aldon fled home through a fifth story window, but after an investigated by the San Francisco police, Aldon voluntarily went to a rehabilitation facility. He was released by the Oakland Raiders as a result of the incident and he was charged with willful infliction of corporal injury, assault, false imprisonment and vandalism which were all misdemeanors. He pleaded not guilty to assault charges but is set to return to court once more as the case is not finished.
