I dislike Dog , but in this article I dont see what crime was committed. Heck I have given some of those kids several polite lectures over the years and never was charged with a crime. I am sure some kid could make some crap up, but this sounds hokey.
Assault doesn't require physical action. It only requires the verbal believed indication of violence. "I'm going to kick your ass." There, you've been assaulted.Quote:

I'm not surprised, too many times I have seen them spouting law, only they really have no professional understanding of the law(as SA explained), I think that one of these days something very very bad is going to happen to them, bite off more then they can chew and get into a pretty bad situation, but I get the feeling that they really do not go after really bad bail jumpers, they make those they get seem worse then they are.
Totally agree but in this case it sounds like someone is fishing for some cash from the dog and his wife. As observed there is a safety concern at that lake with speeders as observed and I can see why people get angry, but it really is not a bad place just has no organized parking. However Ms.Dog if she did mouth off should not have done it, but to be charged with a crime sounds pretty stupid.Quote:

Not sure where you got that information from...but it's wrong. Assault (1st, 2nd and 3rd) does require various degrees of physical injury. And there's no such offense as battery (at least under state statutes) in Colorado.Quote:
