The 9 “wise” did at least look at the specific of the case
Because Castleman’s indictment makes clear that physical force was an element of his conviction, that conviction qualifies as a `misdemeanor crime of domestic violence
Had it not been so the case would be less easy to call violent.
Now of course the solution is to have the state legislators REQUIRE prof of PHYSICAL violence to the statues. In effect make the misdemeanor require felony level proof as it now will have felony level punishment.
Yeah well, that’s just too logical for it apply in this day and age...A black eye should not be proof enough unless the knuckle prints match his and not hers!
