Re: aggrevated assualt and ciminal intent

Criminal cases are always a dice roll and you can always be found guilty if the Judge or Jury believes the evidence is sufficient to prove your culpability. Aggravated Assault is either a felony of the first or second degree. Since you mention a weapon, this is probably a felony of the second degree and the maximum would be 10 years.
