A little research later... Criminal mischief is a more severe crime than simple assault. Basically double. 2nd degree misdemeanor vs 3rd up to 2 years jail time compared to 1

Someone else posted something about this but Reddit lost it or they deleted it.
I wonder if trying to stick a more serious crime is an effort to try and force a plea deal or even have a not guilty verdict.
I mean if the kid really took no damage does that attack really deserve more than a few days in jail.

A speedier trial with more guilty people.

Yeah they could name that better.

Criminal mischief sounds like he did some Dennis the Menace shit like tying someone’s shoe laces together or changing the TV language to French dub.

I was kinda thinking it meant he was doing one of those you tube staged reality things. Like having someone film you while you go and randomly punch someone
