Assault is aggravated, from what I understand, if the deadly weapon is a Hi Point or a Raven .25 because it shows premeditated intent to be skanky.ml1209 wrote:Okay I just got off the phone with the LE agency who arrested her. They said she has a lengthy arrest record with them alone for the last 7 years. Some of the arrests are for driving without a license, criminal mischief, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and assault with bodily injury. Wow.
And the drug she was arrested for a few days ago is in the penalty group of hard drugs - cocaine, heroin, meth, etc.
What the heck is aggravated assault with a deadly weapon?
I once discharged an employee who couldn't balance receipts and petty cash, which was a prominent part of the job. I appealed the Texas Workforce Commission's decision to grant unemployment compensation and lost on the basis I didn't provide sufficient remedial help with math.
Her next job was as a teller. After a couple of years she was convicted for mishandling funds. I really don't think she is a bad person, just unwilling to reject temptation. I think she couldn't resist a little shopping loan from the cash drawer, one thing led to another, and she was soon beyond what she could pay back.
I wish her the best. What she did was inexcusable, but I hope she is right with the world. I also wish I hadn't been compelled to pay higher unemployment premiums.
Unemployment insurance is a mixed bag to start with, and the Texas Workforce Commission doesn't manage it well.
