Mary Cosby’s Son Robert Cosby Jr. Arrested in Utah on Assault and Trespass Charges

Court filings detail an alleged dog-door entry attempt connected to a domestic case, with records showing a $5,000 bond posting.

Overview

  • Police in Taylorsville, Utah, charged the 22-year-old with assault, criminal trespass of a dwelling, failure to stop at an officer’s command, and three counts of violating a jail release or court order.
  • Court documents say a Sept. 5 arrest led to a no-contact order with his wife, after which he allegedly texted her and, on Sept. 7, tried to enter his father-in-law’s home through a dog door.
  • Officers reported the father-in-law said he was punched multiple times, and police observed red marks on his ears and torso and a laceration on his left ear; Cosby initially did not comply with commands to get on the ground.
  • Booking records show he was released after posting a $5,000 bond, though some earlier media reports cited a different amount.
  • A pretrial protective order now lists Alexiana Smokoff and Shad Stoker as protected parties, and Mary Cosby recently said her son’s sobriety remains a “hardcore road.”
