#1:American Idol' winner Laine Hardy is accused of bugging an ex-girlfriend's dorm
American Idol" winner Laine Hardy was arrested Friday after being accused of putting a listening device in his ex-girlfriend's college dorm room, authorities said.
Hardy, 21, of Livingston, Louisiana, faces a felony charge of interception and disclosure of wire, electronic or oral communication, Louisiana State University spokesman Ernie Ballard said. Hardy surrendered to the LSU Police Department and was booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison.
A spokesman for Hardy, who is not an LSU student, did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.
Hardy's attorney, C. Frank Holthaus, said in a statement to USA Today that his client "has been and will continue to be completely cooperative with the Louisiana State University Police Department on this matter."
Holthaus did not immediately respond to a telephone message from The Associated Press seeking comment.
According to the arrest warrant, a woman and her roommate found a recording device inside their dorm room on April 6. The following day, they reported the finding to LSU police. The woman told police she found the device, which looked like a phone charger, under her futon, the warrant stated.
