David2 said:I'm no lawyer, but I think an assault can be rendered mentally, not just physically. An assault is traditionally defined as, basically, hitting the body of another, whether with fists, bludgeons, etc. But, it seems to me that Thomas assaulted his classmates by inserting weed into the brownies. He assaulted their brains in this case, without their consent. I'd say the victims have a case against Thomas for mental assault. IMO. And, I don't mean mental, verbal, abuse.
Wow, he lost his scholarship. Let it go. I think I may have a case against you for mental assault reading your post.
