Hogan was convicted of sexually assaulting a 15-year-old boy. The assault happened on 11 November 2006 in a house Hogan was renting. He was given a two-year suspended jail sentence, placed on the sex offenders register, and ordered not to have unsupervised contact with children. The judge, Carroll Moran, made the judgement that Hogan had a "moderate to low" level chance of re-offending. However, Hogan's parole officer, Nora Brassil, stated in an earlier hearing that Hogan saw the assault as "a mutual sexual incident/ relationship". She was concerned that if Hogan did not see what he had done as wrong, he might re-offend.
