   During his first reelection bid, Hinson stunned everyone by   
   announcing that in 1976 he had been accused of committing an obscene   
   act at a gay haunt in Virginia. Hinson, married and a strong   
   conservative, added that in 1977 he had survived a fire in a gay   
   D.C. movie theater. He was making the disclosure, he said, because   
   he needed to clear his conscience. But he denied he was a homosexual   
   and refused GOP demands that he resign. Hinson won reelection in a   
   three-way race, with 39 percent of the vote. But three months later,   
   he was arrested on charges of attempted oral sodomy in the restroom   
   of a House office building. He resigned his seat on April 13, 1981.
