I saw that. Are they out yet?

Yes. Someone threw his bail ($100) after 2 p.m. and he walked out a free man. His father's fate wasn't mentioned in the article that I read. I would guess he is not as much of a protesting danger as George Clooney and probably was released for a similar amount of money.
