Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Star Mary Cosby’s Son Arrested on Charges of Assault, Trespassing and More

Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Mary Cosby’s son Robert Cosby Jr., was recently arrested on a handful of charges, including assault and trespassing.

The arrest took place on Saturday, Sept. 6 outside of Salt Lake City, when local police responded to a domestic violence report, per TMZ, which was first to report the news. Robert Jr. is accused of attempting to climb through a dog door to break into his father-in-law’s home before he allegedly assaulted someone on the front lawn. When police ordered him to get on the ground, Robert Jr. allegedly failed to do so. He ultimately complied before he was arrested.

He was charged with criminal trespassing, assault, failure to stop at the command of law enforcement and three counts of violating a court order, per his booking record viewed by PEOPLE. He was being held on a $10,000 bond; however, as of this writing, he has not been released.

PEOPLE has reached out to a rep for Mary and the Salt Lake City Police Department for comment.

Mary, 52, recently opened up about Robert Jr.’s sobriety in an interview with Real Housewives of New York alum Dorinda Medley for her Sirius XM show Reality Checked on Tuesday, Sept. 9.

“He’s doing as good as he can,” Mary began. “It’s his journey. I can’t make… I told him, ‘If you don’t make your mind up, then this is all for nothing.’ And if it just takes a made up mind to do and execute whatever you are trying to do, but you can’t do it if your mind’s not made up. And I can’t make it up for him. I can just only push him, encourage him and love him.”

Mary added that her son is “still on that road and it’s a hardcore road,” saying that “it’s tough to watch as a mom.”

She elaborated further on her hopes for her son’s future. “It’s hurtful to see his dad is most of the time devastated. But at the same time, I have hope and I believe in him. I know that his ability, I mean, I raised him, so I know he’s got all the tools and he’s got all the will, the willpower that he needs and the support. He just needs to make up his mind.”
