When you’re a celebrity, they let you send someone to the hospital and not go through the system:
since it doesn’t look like he’s on his way to jail downtown he was likely issued a desk appearance ticket (vs formal booking and going in front of Judge). Good lawyers (or celebrity treatment) I presume seeing as it was an alleged assault in which vic went to hospital ??♀️ https://t.co/9pZrv6I6dy
