The Los Angeles Police Department confirmed to Us Weekly on Tuesday, June 30, that the bassist, 41, was charged with violating California penal code 237.5 (a), which makes it illegal for someone to “willfully inflict corporal injury resulting in a traumatic condition” on a spouse or cohabitant. According to the booking record obtained by Us, his charge level is a felony.

Madden, who isn’t married, posted bail of $50,000, on Saturday, hours after going to jail. His next court date is scheduled for September 29.

“We are deeply devastated by this disappointing news,” a rep for Maroon 5 told the New York Post’s Page Six on Tuesday. “As we learn more, we are looking at this very seriously.”

The rep continued: “For now, we are allowing all of the individuals involved the space to work things through.”

Hollywood's Sexual Misconduct Scandals

The musician was previously arrested for cocaine possession in New York City in January 2016. He accepted a conditional dismissal of the charges in May 2016, in exchange for one day of community service, the New York Daily News reported at the time.

According to police, Madden was arrested after he was spotted passing a vial of the drug to another man outside a bar in the East Village neighborhood of New York City.

His lawyer, Joe Tacopina, told the outlet that Madden never handled the drugs. “[Madden] was purely innocent,” he said at the time. “He didn’t possess any narcotics. The individual he was with did, but he didn’t.”

Six months after completing his community service, Tacopina revealed that his client’s record would be expunged. “He’s a good guy,” he added. “He’s not somebody who has ever had any interaction with the law before.”

Stars at Court

The Texas native has been part of rock group Maroon 5 since its inception in 1994. The band also includes Adam Levine, Jesse Carmichael, James Valentine, Matt Flynn, PJ Morton and Sam Farrar.

Neither Madden nor his fellow bandmates have commented on the alleged domestic violence and subsequent arrest.

Aly Raisman: A Day in My Life

Aly Raisman ’s life has looked quite different since she officially hung up her leotard and retired from gymnastics in 2020. But even though she’s not spending as much time at the gym, the former gymnast, 26, still makes it a point to live a healthy lifestyle. On a typical day in her life, Raisman will do a Pilates session to maintain her svelte physique. After years of intense training, the three-time Olympic gold medalist found that the method — which involves low-impact flexibility and muscular strength and endurance movements — not only benefited her body, but her mind too. “When I have a good workout, I feel more calm and I feel more connected to my body,” she told Women’s Health in January. “That is a very different answer that I would have given you a couple of years ago. If I were training, I would have probably said a good workout to me is when I push myself as much as I can … I think I pushed myself enough for most of my life. So, now I just want to leave the gym feelin...
