The involved defense attorneys, Jayne Weintraub and Howard Srebnick, confirmed that Lisa Hochstein and Jody Glidden will be free of all charges without any admission of guilt or conviction, according to USA Today. The duo was arrested on one felony charge each in April, after allegedly placing a recording device in a car during the Hochsteins’ divorce proceedings in 2023. While he was released after posting a USD 5,000 bond and later entering a non-guilty plea, Lisa surrendered to the officials on April 15, followed by release after a USD 5,000 bond and a non-guilty plea.
About the filed case on non-consensual recording
In March 2023, the warrant was filed after Lisa borrowed a brand-new, expensive car from Lenny, alleging that she wanted to buy the same for herself, according to People. However, after returning his car, Lenny found a suspicious device in the driver’s seat floorboard, later identified as a recorder. “It was covered in tape, which, upon learning the nature of the device, the victim suspected was used to secure it under the seat and out of view,” the warrant stated.One of the last recordings found on the device was Hochstein and Glidden’s discussion, and a distinct sound as the hidden recorder was being wrestled into the place. Moreover, the device later captured the former couple speaking about kids, plastic surgery, finances, and a construction project. Lenny mentioned to the authorities that he had confronted Lisa about the device, and he did not consent to being recorded.Disclaimer: This report is a journalistic account of a recent court development.
