Maybe he was doing the good thing and keeping her from driving, maybe not. Do you expect him to put out a statement saying I beat her and kept her against her will with no obvious mitigating explanation?

Let's let the system play itself out. If he's innocent then hopefully the system will work right, and this will be nothing more than a blip on the radar.

We do, and I made an off the cuff comment when this thread popped up yesterday, and I shouldn't have.

I've seen Shawne Merriman in person. The guy is a monster. Tila skankbucket is tiny, especially in comparison to him. If he choked her and pushed her around or struck her, she would have bruises or marks to show for it. Paramedics were called, they examined her, and found nothing.

Like you said, we have to wait, but after reading a few articles about this, I'd say a drunken overreaction but Ms. Tequila.
