It is actually very surprising that he would be release since he is on felony probation. However, there is a presumption of innocence regardless of the evidence against a person. The system isn't perfect but that is what our constitution says. Meanwhile, make sure you stay in contact with the police and prosecutors to keep them informed of the status of the case. Good luck.
