AUGUSTA On April 15, the Maine Supreme Court, citing ineffective counsel, vacated a gross sexual assault conviction against a former Tremont Consolidated School teacher accused of sexually assaulting a student.
That was the last remaining conviction for Ben Hodgdon, 53, of Tremont, who spent three years in prison after being found guilty of three charges. Hodgdon was released last summer.
Two other convictions, one for unlawful sexual contact and the other for sexual abuse of a minor, were vacated by the court in March of 2020, after Hodgdon’s petition that he had ineffective counsel.
