The Prosecutors office could charge him with Assault with a Deadly Weapon, Assault, Battery, Sexual Battery, or Sexual Assault. Most likely they would charge him with ADW and Sexual Battery as felony offenses.

Whether or not he is found guilty or not guilty depends on more known facts of the case.
