Adult Swim has let go of Justin Roiland, the co-creator of rick and morty and the voice of the main characters, while facing domestic violence charges. Roiland also resigned from Squanch Games, a video game company he co-founded.
nbc news reports that a criminal complaint was filed against Roiland in May 2020 charging Roiland with one count of domestic battery and one count of false imprisonment. He claims that the incident occurred in mid-January 2020.
Roiland reportedly pleaded not guilty in October 2020. “We look forward to clearing Justin’s name and helping him move forward as quickly as possible,” attorney T. Edward Welbourn wrote.
Justin Roiland is not married or linked to a sentimental partner
As far as we know, Justin Roiland is not married and doesn’t appear to be dating. Roiland is quite private: his social media pages contain no evidence of romantic connections.
nbc news reports that Roiland’s accuser, identified as Jane Doe, was dating Justin when the alleged assault occurred. Court records show that a protective order prohibits Roiland from harassing, threatening or monitoring her accuser.
Roiland must not come within 100 feet of the person or possess a firearm. The order will expire in October 2023.
A protective order seals the details of the case against Roiland, including the abuse investigation reports, medical reports, police body camera footage and the affidavit in support of Roiland’s arrest. The purpose of the order is to protect the alleged victim.
Roiland’s attorney, Edward Welbourn, said prosecutors offered Roiland a plea deal but did not discuss the details. Welbourn said he hopes to anticipate the dismissal of the case:
“Not only is Justin innocent, but we also hope this matter is on track to be dismissed once the district attorney’s office has completed its methodical review of the evidence.”
Roiland’s Instagram page shows that he had close connections to his deceased dogs, Mharti and Jerry. The cubs, siblings distinguished by the color of their noses, died within a day of each other in April 2022 after battling cancer.
Roiland wrote the following Instagram tribute to Jerry on April 4, 2022: “Jerry I love you with all my heart. I cherished every moment I had with you. We will meet again. Until then, take care of me and protect me from evil. R.I.P. Jerry Michaels.”
The next day, Roiland lost Mharti. She wrote on Instagram: “Words cannot describe the pain I feel over the unexpected loss this morning of Mharti “Pup Pup” Michaels. He was Jerry’s little brother and his little heart failed him this morning. my two babies [are] Both are gone. I love you more than words can express.
