Worrick Robinson, Wallen’s attorney, confirmed the news of his arrest and stated that he is fully cooperating with the police. He was released from jail on a $15,250 bond. His court appearance is set for May 3.
Morgan is one of the most well-established singers in the contemporary country music industry. Last year, in 2023, his third album “One Thing at a Time” became one of the best-selling albums in America.
