Charges to Be Dropped Against ‘Real Housewives’ Star Lisa Hochstein, Ex-Boyfriend, Attorneys Say

Both defendants entered pretrial diversion, which could lead Miami-Dade prosecutors to drop interception charges if they complete the program.

  • On Tuesday, May 19, attorneys for Real Housewives of Miami star Lisa Hochstein and Jody Glidden announced the pair reached an agreement with prosecutors to enter a pretrial diversion program, allowing their criminal charges to be dismissed by mid-June.
  • The charges stemmed from an alleged March 2023 incident where the couple placed a hidden recording device in the car of Lisa's ex-husband, plastic surgeon Leonard 'Lenny' Hochstein, during their contentious divorce proceedings.
  • Police arrested the pair in April after a warrant alleged they installed the device to monitor Lenny's private conversations; investigators recovered 98 recordings from the recorder, including one capturing the couple installing it.
  • Under the agreement, the charges will be dismissed in mid-June without any admission of guilt or conviction, provided the pair complete the pretrial diversion program and remain arrest-free during their participation.
  • Lisa and Glidden, who confirmed their relationship in February 2023, reportedly split earlier this year, while the reality show RHOM is currently on pause following the conclusion of its latest season.
