It's not that easy.
He will be given a sheet of paper which states a penal code violation. It's not anything more than may have been been provided to the press, just a Penal Code number and a bail amount. No further details. And he himself cannot discuss it further without jeopardizing his case. One should never say anything which may incriminate oneself including that which includes a blow by blow account by which one may be compromised - regardless of how innocent one is of the charges filed.
You have no idea what may have went on without having been a witness yourself or hearing honest testimony. And I will tell you that the one jury I served on maybe twenty years ago saw everyone who testified on either the prosecution or defense side without exception lied their asses off, it was evident in their body language and the way they talked.
It's a crooked racket.
