YORK (AP) — The former Kennebunk Zumba instructor facing prostitution charges has been accused by the father of her 7-year-old son of posing for "inappropriate pictures" with the boy.
The allegations were made by Benjamin Hopkins in a court complaint seeking civil protection and full custody of the child he has with Alexis Wright.
Wright has custody.
Hopkins says in the complaint that Wright is nude in the pictures while the boy was covered from the waist down with only a sheet.
The case was dismissed by a judge on Wednesday when neither Hopkins nor Wright showed up for a court hearing on the matter.
Lawyers for both had no comment on the alleged photographs when contacted by The Portland Press Herald, but Hopkins' lawyer confirmed his client is trying to obtain custody.
