Shortly after news broke that Ronnie Ortiz-Magro would not face a felony charge over his alleged altercation with Jen Harley, E! News confirmed on October 24 that the Jersey Shore star faces five misdemeanors.

According to the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office, Ronnie was charged with domestic violence, brandishing a weapon, child endangerment, false imprisonment [of Jen], resisting arrest and making criminal threats.

"The facts and circumstances around Ronnie's arrest have been misreported and exaggerated, like we mentioned in the past. We are happy the District Attorney's refused to file any charges and we look forward to addressing this matter with City Attorney; until then, we will make no further comment," his attorney told E! News.

Jen's attorney Michael Cristalli told E! News the she "is the victim in this case" and that "any attempts to portray her as anything other than the victim is just wrong."
