It\u2019s unclear if the incident was shared with law enforcement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMr. Hodges\u2019 reputation was unfairly destroyed by accusations that are completely untrue,\u201d his lawyer, Tom Fini, said in a statement.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
