complicity is pretty easy to establish.
Charge the guy. Convict the guy. Then figure out what to do with him.

I'm guessing that's probably not too far from the truth, except for
the conviction part. I've experienced something similar up here in
Toronto, Canada, except the charges were part of the cops fact
finding.

I was sick and passed out at the wheel of my car. Slammed head on into
a concrete light pillar and knocked it over. Woke up in the hospital
not remembering one bit of the accident. Cops didn't have a clue why
the accident happened either, but that didn't stop them from charging
me with careless driving. When I consulted a lawyer, I was told it was
just one method they use to find more information.
