There are certain times when lashing out at someone is totally called for. In Arizona, they don’t really see it that way and sentenced a 24-year-old man to three years of probation, and all he plead guilty to was aggravated assault.
This guy wanted to suck his roommates blood, as he had at least once before, but the roommate refused. Well, you don’t say no to Dracula. The man then stabbed his roommate in frustration.
In Arizona, aggravated assault gets you probation–that is of course unless you don’t speak English.
