Welcome to Arrest Stories. A twenty-two-year-old son of a reality television star finds himself behind bars twice in one weekend after allegedly attempting to break into his father-in-law's home through a dog door and assaulting the man. Here's what may have happened.
On September fifth, Robert Clinton Cosby was initially arrested on a misdemeanor domestic violence matter in the Salt Lake City area. Following his Saturday morning release from custody, Cosby had agreed to specific jail release conditions that would soon be violated.
According to police reports, the situation escalated dramatically on Sunday when Cosby allegedly attempted an unusual break-in method at his father-in-law's residence. Authorities say he tried forcing entry through the home's dog door before allegedly punching his father-in-law multiple times during a confrontation.
When officers arrived at the scene, they documented extensive evidence of the alleged assault. Police observed red marks on the victim's ears and torso, along with a laceration on his left ear. The physical evidence corroborated the assault allegations that would lead to Cosby's second arrest in just days.
The charges against Cosby paint a picture of escalating behavior. He faces assault, failure to stop at the command of an officer, criminal trespass of a dwelling, and three counts of violating his jail release court order. Investigators revealed that Cosby had sent multiple text messages to his wife, directly violating the terms of his weekend release agreement.
During the investigation, disturbing details about Cosby's background emerged. He reportedly told authorities about his drug use history, stating he began experimenting with substances at age sixteen. What started with natural substances allegedly progressed to harder drugs including Xanax, LSD, MDMA, and OxyContin. In a particularly revealing moment, Cosby reportedly told investigators, "I just felt like a stain."
A complaint was filed on Wednesday, and Cosby was subsequently released after posting five thousand dollars bond.
