Although, it has come out that the actor is guilty of committing an offence but his close friends still believe him to be innocent.
A close friend of Glee star told People’s magazine,"This isn't the guy I know at all," he added, "I have to believe his computer was hacked."
Could this be a well-set trap by the former girlfriend of the Glee star? Well! We have to believe the police investigation was thorough enough to find if something like this was plotted just for seeking a revenge.
After the charge set on the actor, it has now been believed that his acting career is over. Many have believed with after a heinous charge faced by him, the actor has kissed his career goodbye.
