Anyone's story about 'why they just got arrested' is probably not one you can really take at face value.
People who did nothing will usually say they did nothing.
People who committed a crime or were very unruly or unsafely intoxicated will also usually say they did nothing.
Let's not start sharpening the pitchforks quite yet.
This could be a ridiculous and completely unjust situation!
However, it could also be that this person got very drunk while partying and did something stupid, and either remembers it incorrectly (see 'drunk') or is terrified of losing their job and wants to set the narrative.
