Well if he did not go to judge and give information resulting in an arrest warrant being granted. Or get a form of authority to do this from a third party. Like the attorney generals department first. Since they ruled there is no charge here later obviously he did not. I believe he may be able to issue a summons to appear perhaps. Even this should be vetted so his self interest is not the driving component. Before it is created. Arresting and incarceration where way over the top.

He is guilty of acting in a police state manner. He is not qualified to determine the conditions or extent of the laws in particular in this area himself. Or act on them in this fashion by himself anyways. He should lose his job and perhaps be charged. Instead the complaintant will just get paid off.

He may or may not have acted properly. If he had I have reservations they would be concerned about the potential liability issue. It is also a reasonable expectation that to a certain degree. Expectations are he should expect critics.

After all police officers are taught and encouraged to lie and fabricate issues. Or it is well tolerated by their administrations for those that do. They appear to have absolutely no concience about those that falsely land up incarcerated as a result.

How many people just take a plea deal at the recommendation of their state appointed lawyer? Just because they do not have the five thousand or more down payment for real legal counsel. Anyways there are a lot of details missing so other than he did not have the right to act alone is not known. For example did the officer have a lot of complaints on his record? Or was well known for an abrasive attitude? Had the defendant launched an official complaint as well with no results? A police chief has the responsibility to audit his force almost constantly for their general behavior.
