<p>The court documents say Roiland was free on a bond of $50,000. His attorney T. Edward Welbourn said in a statement to Variety, "It is hard to overstate how inaccurate the recent media coverage of this situation has been. To be clear, not only is Justin innocent but we also have every expectation that this matter is on course to be dismissed once the District Attorney’s office has completed its methodical review of the evidence. We look forward to clearing Justin’s name and helping him move forward as swiftly as possible.”</p>
