Sexual assault charges against Colby Jordan Ryan, the eldest and only surviving son of Lori Vallow Daybell, who is accused of killing her two other children, have been dropped, according to the Maricopa County Attorney's Office. Ryan was arrested last week in Arizona after being accused by his estranged wife of rape.
"I can confirm that this office has filed a motion to dismiss without prejudice, which allows the office to file charges in the future and provides time for additional review of the case," Maricopa County Attorney's Office communications director Jennifer Liewer told CBS News in a statement Tuesday.
Ryan, 26, was released from custody Thursday, according to a release document from the attorney's office. The terms of Ryan's release stipulate that he cannot "initiate contact" with either the arresting officers or the alleged victim.
