Hansen Harassment
In 2018, USA Today reported Edgar Hansen had plead guilty to sexually assaulting a 16-year old female during September 2017. Reaching a plea deal, the “Deadliest Catch” star received a suspended jail sentence, paid fines of over $1,000 and was forced to undergo “sexual-deviancy evaluation and treatment.” Revealed by CBS News, Hansen admitted to inappropriately touching the underage girl and coercing her into doing the same to him for “my own sexual gratification” and stated he was “very sorry for that conduct.”
