Yeah, this guy:
Thats Virginia Lawmaker Joe Morrissey. I’ll let you just read the rest.
A Virginia politician found guilty of committing a vicious assault in 1999 may be angling to become the state’s next attorney general.
Democratic Del. Joseph D. Morrissey was disbarred and lost his law license in 2003 after attacking a man — beating him with a large ring around his finger.
According to legal brief filed on behalf of the victim, Morrissey shouted, “I’m going to kill you. I’m going to beat your head in,” and then attempted to make good on his promise.
When the man attempted to escape his beating, Morrissey “smashed his head into the corner of a brick wall,” according to a court filing by the victim’s lawyers.
In 2002, a jury decided that Morrissey must pay his victim $40,000 in compensatory damages and $1,000,000 in punitive damages. The amount was later reduced.
Yep, Criminals always want their victims to be disarmed and helpless.
