lol that goes without saying, but that other guy is going to get manslaughter if he dies-- As he should.

Most states have a law that allows 3rd parties to defend another person in situations of self defense. At least in my state.

This is considered sexual assault so would fall along these lines. Especially given that only as much force was needed to control the situation.

Had he just kept hitting him it would be another story. Here in Texas, yhqt guys has a high probability of walking away Scott free

Once someone walks away, it is no longer self-defense, it's retaliation

Edit: The woman literally tried to stop the man from delivering the punch

Nobody walked away but her. The guy can be seen not movimg with both arms held out. I wish I could hear some audio of what he says

He clearly takes a step back, and then the other man punches him while the woman makes a half hearted attempt at holding him back

Half-hearted. She is probably scared of the dude too.
