The Los Angeles city attorney's office says the 38-year-old video king and his driver/bodyguard are charged for a January altercation that began when three women got into his limousine outside the Supper Club. Prosecutors say the women thought they were being driven to their car but were taken to Francis's gated home, where a struggle occurred during which he slammed one woman's head on a tile floor.

Francis says he has eight eyewitnesses and security camera footage that proves he is innocent. He says the women were fighting with themselves and were asked to leave his house.
