Roiland was arrested in August 2020 — some seven months after an alleged domestic violence incident involving an unnamed woman, according to court records. He was released after posting a $50,000 bond and, two months later, pleaded not guilty to one felony count of domestic corporal injury and one felony count of false imprisonment by menace, fraud, violence or deceit, records show.


A case summary shows at least a dozen pretrial hearings have been held since January 2021, but the charges against Roiland went unreported by the media until NBC News published a story earlier this month.

Shouldn't they have waited for the result of the trial? I just got into this show after years of ppl telling me it was great. Of course if the accusations are true then it's understandable to fire him. It won't be the same, but I guess we'll see how it goes.

If the accusations are true, then he'll go to jail and that should be his punishment.
Why are studios replacing the job of the courts and prisons nowadays? I don't really understand.

Just heard he was definitely already caught making obscene texts to underage girls. It's been a sort of Hollywood secret up until now, but with these added charges, it's the straw that broke the camel's back. There's probably a conduct clause in his contract.
