Ryan Anderson's charge isn't for beating a woman. I've seen it explained this way:
quote:

quote:Hear are some general legal definitions that will help everyone understand the charge: Criminal Mischief means he damaged property valued at less than $500 dollars. Domestic Violence means the property belonged to his wife/ex-wife, girlfriend/ex-g/f, parent, child, or household member. Bottom Line: He was not arrested for hitting a woman.
Then why wasn't the charge for Criminal Mischief and Destruction of Property instead of Domestic Violence?

He was. DV 3rd has subsections.


If the alleged vic is one of those set forth in the DV statute, they match up the criminal act (criminal mischief/assault/harassing communications) and that is the subsection you are charged with...

because of his relationship to the alleged victim. You will notice he is not charged with assault or battery. The way the law is written you can be charged with 3rd degree domestic violence for pretty much raising your voice.
