STORY: Tate, along with his brother Tristan and two Romanian women, have been in police custody since Dec. 29 while the investigation continues. They deny the charges of forming a gang to exploit women sexually.

Their detention was extended in January until February 27th, which they have appealed. Tate's PR manager, Mateea Petrescu, mentioned that adding high-profile U.S. lawyer Tina Glandian was justified because the Tate brothers are American citizens and need a global team.
