via People:
Dionne awakened the girl at his home, grabbing her under her clothes and taking pictures of her, according to a warrant obtained by the Hartford Courant.
The reality show host was in his boxers and asked if she wanted to touch his penis, the warrant said. The girl declined.
Dionne then told the girl, “Don’t tell your mom, I’ll go to jail,” according to the warrant.
Dionne first denied wrongdoing, telling cops that when he got home, the victim was awake and began to put her arms around him.
Dionne was filming the A&E show “House Rescue” in California when police began the investigation.
A&E suspended production of the series after the allegations.
Lock him up. Forever.
