American Idol singer Laine Hardy received an arrest warrant from the Louisiana State University Police Department on Thursday (April 28), and he says he's cooperating fully. His lawyer adds that he'll continue to work with LSU as they investigate the allegations against him.

The nature of the allegations were at first unclear, but WAFB-TV in Baton Rouge, La., sources someone familiar with the case in reporting Hardy (from nearby Livingston, La.) is accused of leaving a listening device in a female's residence to monitor her conversations. LSU police told USA Today they may announce charges on Friday (April 29).

Police documents later confirmed this. The victim is not identified in police documents shared by the New York Post, but in addition to her statements she gave police evidence of Hardy's alleged illegal surveillance. He's being charged with Interception and Disclosure of Wire, Electronic or Oral Communication, a felony that — per WAFB-TV in Baton Rouge — is punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
