On a moral examination, she totally deserved it. But, like I said, I do think he violated the letter of the law, even if it was reasonable enough for him to do what he did. Taking her phone is probably the most unjustified thing he did, but it seems like he gave it back at some point. Hopefully, he gets leniency for the battery charge because it is simple battery, and because it's OC spray, there's no real physical injury like bruising.
