Hayden released a statement saying that the claims were from his ex-girlfriend. Hayden adds that the ex is the mother of the girl who was said to be the victim of the molestation. Hayden noted that the claims may be an attempt from his ex-girlfriend to get back at him because he has already moved on and is said to be married to another woman as of the moment.

Police reported that the ex-girlfriend told the authorities that her daughter was being touched in "inappropriate" ways. The child is being taken care of by Hayden and his new wife. The child who was the alleged victim was said to have been interviewed already by the Child Protective Services but no official statement regarding this has been released. It was said though that the child was sent home after the interview. Hayden continues to work with the authorities regarding this issue.

Hayden, 44, is the owner of 'Red Jacket Firearms' and it is what the show is about. He documents his family working at their gun shop and they show them customizing and testing the weapons made. The show first aired back in 2011 of January but has ended airing last May this year.

However, the older daughter of Hayden claimed that there was never anything inappropriate in their home. She adds that Hayden was and is a good father to them. Stephanie also starred in the series with her father.
