From the article. To me, this tells me it wasn't just a mistake. It was premeditated. He had a long time to think about it before the game even started; and he still did it. If it had been a heat of the moment thing in a highly competitive environment, it would be one thing. But this is premeditated assault. He should be charged, and he should be fired.
OK, it was a premediated mistake. You mean charged as in criminally charged???? Any attorneys here. I sincerely doubt this would be considered assault. I've seen some illegal screens that could be construed as assault.......He should not be charged, but he may be fired.
