The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed that as of Friday, March 14, Bar had been released from a California jail after being transferred following months in lockup in Las Vegas. 

The Teen Mom star, who was in a relationship with ex Ashley Jones, now faces strict rules connected to his release and plea deal.

Posing in a new snap following his release, Bar can be seen wearing black trousers and a black short-sleeved t-shirt.

Standing in a parking lot, the reality star is looking directly into the camera lens with a vacant look on his face.

Bar's jawline appears less defined than usual, and his eyes seem less bright.

His facial hair and beard is more rugged than his previous pictures on his old Instagram account.

NEW BEGINNINGS

"Threw on a lil 40 pounds, 200 coming soon though," he penned in the caption.

One fan rushed to the comments and penned: "Bar!!!!!!! So happy for you.

"You had a lot of people rooting for you and knew it was just a toxic situation that went too far. Now get back together."

Bar recently opened a new Instagram account after getting locked out of his main account.

His account, @barikismith, which has almost 100,000 followers, has not been active since July 2024, ahead of Bar's court trial.

The account he is currently using, @barikismithh, has just 147 followers.

"Can’t access @barikismith yet give me a few days," it says in the account's bio.

His first post on his new account was shared four days ago.

RELEASE FROM JAIL

This comes after his release from jail after being briefly held in a local California jail after being transferred there earlier this week on a warrant relating to gun charges in The Golden State. 

Bar was picked up by California authorities on March 12, after he was released from the Clark County Detention Center in Las Vegas. 

A clerk from Clark County informed The U.S. Sun at the time "He had a fugitive case out of California. They came to pick him up."

He kidnapped his ex Ashley in Nevada, and was already in hot water with California cops after he discharged a firearm at her college graduation party in the state in 2021.

Bar had a warrant out for him in California for not showing up to court for charges connected to that incident.

Bar’s most recent arrest occurred in Nevada in July 2024.

He agreed to a plea deal last month after spending months in jail for assaulting Ashley at her home in Las Vegas.

Court documents show that on February 28, Bar pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of battery constituting domestic violence connected to the alarming July 7 incident.

According to a court update, the Teen Mom star was released because his sentence was officially served.

Ashley filed for divorce on August 1 and requested sole custody of their daughter, Holly Isabella Locket, 7.

The divorce was dismissed after both parties failed to attend a hearing in late 2024.
