"Richard Trask is an honorable man who has served his country throughout his entire career,” Attorney Sarissa Montague said. "He loves his family and career as a servant to our nation. Out of respect to all parties involved, we will not try this case in the court of public opinion."

Trask was reportedly given a $10,000 personal recognizance bond, which he posted.
