Well it finally happened... one of my tenants got arrested

I'm not really sure what I should do (if anything) about this situation. 

What I know so far is that I had a couple and small child move into one of my properties less than a month ago. They both passed credit and criminal background checks no problem. My partner who deals with the tenants more than I do, told me they seem like perfectly fine people. Last night we were informed by our onsite tenant/super that the husband was arrested. We did a FOYA request for the request report, and my partner was able to speak to the arresting officer. She explained to the officer who she was and the officer told her the husband has been arrested for abuse, presumably to the wife. I'm not sure what the exact charges will be or if it matters.

We haven't done anything with our tenant as of yet, would like to engage the hive mind to see what you come up with.

This is a first for us and any suggestions, ideas, or thoughts would be appreciated.
