It would be either battery or simple battery, not assault. Actually, in Texas assault and battery aren't separate charges Texas Penal Code § 22.01, et seq. Statutory Definition of Assault A person commits an offense if the person: Intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly causes bodily injury to another, including the person's spouse; Intentionally or knowingly threatens another with imminent bodily injury, including the person's spouse; or Intentionally or knowingly causes physical contact with another when the person knows or should reasonably believe that the other will regard the contact as offensive or provocative. This is just going off memory from a law class I took a year ago, but I think the crime is elevated to aggravated assault if a weapon is used. You're right that paddling isn't a crime, though. Certainly not one that justifies murder. --- Proud to be EPic Texas Aggie, Class of 2018 A-Whoop! <cite>MrMelodramatic posted [p:883393123] in Texas has ...
