On a sunny Saturday at the golf course, Lanscomb clobbered afellow player with a club during an argument over a putt. He was charged with aggravated assault pursuant to a statute that prohibits"intentionally causing serious bodily injury."
The victim, who was struck in the jaw, lost several teeth and was forced to endure aprotracted and painful period of recovery. If the prosecution proves that Lanscomb actually intended to swing the club forcefully at the victim's face?
