==Misdemeanor obscenity charge==
   −
Wright was charged with an obscenity violation at Lake Buhlow in [[Pineville, Louisiana|Pineville]] in Rapides Parish. He and Charles Locher, II (born c. 1972) of Deville in Rapides Parish, were arrested in 2004, when a Red River Waterway Commission park ranger said that he walked into a public restroom and found the men engaged in sexual activities. Wright and Locker denied the charges since their arrests and [[grand jury]] [[indictment]]s. The two initially pleaded not guilty. Wright claimed that he had dropped his pants as the ranger entered the restroom and that the ranger misinterpreted the situation. Locker denied impropriety and said that he did not know Wright. The two changed their pleas to guilty on [[misdemeanor]] charges. Wright pleaded guilty to flight from an officer, and Locher pleaded guilty to a charge of criminal mischief, according to Harold A. Van Dyke, III, then the first assistant district attorney in Rapides Parish.<ref>{{cite web|url=www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1190088/posts|title=Louisiana State Rep.
