Don Lemon released without bail after church riot arrest

SUMMARY

Don Lemon made his first court appearance in Los Angeles and was released without bail. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass assured Lemon that politicians would support his work. Lemon's next court date is on February 9. His husband, Tim Malone, was present for support but refrained from speaking to the media. Lemon faces charges for violating a federal law during an anti-ICE protest at Cities Church in Minneapolis on January 18. U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi confirmed his arrest along with others involved. Lemon's attorney argued he acted as a journalist and claimed the arrest distracts from other investigations. He is in L.A. to cover Grammy events amid this legal situation.
