If I was that guy I would sue the sheriff and police department. Wrongful imprisonment and violation of right to a speedy trial.

So the sheriff admitted on National Television that he knew it was just a meme and was not talking about that school and yet they went arrested him anyway, I hope he sues the ever-living shit out of every single person involved in that arrest and a detention
