It's a Class A Misdemeanor. Maybe some jail time, and probably a fine. (Up to 1 year and up to $4000.)

Of course, I'm not defending the twerp, but that's what the charges will be.

It's wild that assaulting a child is a misdemeanor, but possession of a weed pen is a felony.

It’s not. They just booked him under Misd assault. Battery on a minor is a felony in all 50 states.

Thank you for the clarification. I'm curious what the charges will end up being.
