When a crime impacts an individual, it is deemed a “crime against persons.” It is important to understand the concepts of assault and battery when it comes to crimes against persons. An assault is an attempt or threat to injure another person, while battery is the act of making contact with another person in a harmful or offensive manner (FindLaw, 2021). Review the following case briefs:
- State v. Bolarinho
- State v. Flemming
Using the case briefs, your readings, and this unit’s supporting materials, address the following include how you would use the rulings in the Bolarinho and Flemming cases to support your answers to these two questions:
- In your opinion is there any difference between assault and battery? Why do you believe the law stipulates a difference in the two crimes?
- In your opinion, what do you think makes an object a dangerous weapon?
