Jody Glidden arrested in Miami over wiretapping allegations

• Jody Glidden was arrested in Miami for allegedly intercepting Lenny Hochstein's private communications.
• Lisa Hochstein faces similar criminal charges and has an active warrant for her arrest.
• The allegations involve a listening device reportedly planted during the couple’s contentious divorce proceedings.
  

Jody Glidden, the ex-boyfriend of The Real Housewives of Miami star Lisa Hochstein, was taken into custody in Miami on Sunday.

According to court records, Glidden faces one felony count of interception of wire, oral, or electronic communications. He was released shortly after on a $5,000 bond.

The following day, Glidden submitted a plea of not guilty and requested a jury trial, waiving his personal appearance for the upcoming arraignment.

The charges stem from allegations that Glidden and Lisa Hochstein "unlawfully and intentionally" intercepted oral statements made by Lisa’s ex-husband, Leonard “Lenny” Hochstein, between March 12 and March 31, 2023.

While Glidden has been processed, reports indicate that an active arrest warrant has also been issued for Lisa Hochstein, though she has not yet been taken into custody.

These criminal filings follow years of accusations from Lenny Hochstein, who claimed in May 2023 that a listening device had been planted on his vehicle to monitor his private calls during their contentious divorce proceedings.

Lawyers for both Lisa and Glidden released a joint statement maintaining their innocence and questioning the venue of the charges.

"This matter is part of a contentious divorce proceeding and does not belong in criminal court," the statement read. Lisa and Lenny Hochstein finalised their divorce in November 2024 after 13 years of marriage.

Meanwhile, Lisa and Glidden, who began dating in early 2023, reportedly ended their three-year relationship in January 2026.

The Miami-Dade State Attorney's Office has noted that many arrest materials currently remain under seal.
