Assault in the Military

Assault in the military is recognized in two differing degrees, as set forth in article 123. The first is simple assault and the second is aggravated assault. Both of these crimes are extremely serious and will go before a court-martial. Either of these offenses is something that the military frowns upon and strongly punishes. They’re not something to defend yourself against. You’ll need an experienced military criminal lawyer.

Many people are unaware of the concrete facts behind a simple assault. You don’t necessarily have to physically touch someone to assault them. It’s a threat or attempt to injure another party. Sometimes the victim may be struck and sometimes they may simply be threatened. These cases can sometimes be easier to defend, especially if no use of force was used in the end.

The second type of assault is aggravated assault which involves the use of a deadly weapon or other means which will cause injury or even death. If the victim is an officer, child under the age of 16, or law enforcement, the charges can be much more serious to defend.
