He witnesses the wife repeatedly hitting the husband. He intervenes and restrains the wife by shoving her to the ground and restraining her. She breaks free and continues to beat the husband. Jin pepper sprays the wife. She intends to press criminal charges against Jin because her husband actually initiated the altercation and she has bruises all over her body to prove it. Will Jin be held criminally liable?
