“For example, the charge of harassment. So, if you slap someone across the face, that is harassment, it's a strike, shove, kick. If you are charged with harassment, and let's say you're out at a bar having a drink with a buddy and you get real pissed off, and obviously I'm hoping you're not going around slapping your buddies in the face, but if you do something and you hit them, that can be harassment, so long as you don't actually cause serious pain to them.”
“We see harassment. Harassment can be physically shoving someone or pushing someone. Harassment can also be calling someone racial slurs. It can also be calling someone on the telephone over and over or texting over and over.”
“now there are other things that can be seen in domestic violence cases that are included in this kind of realm we see sometimes harassment so people will say well what if i don't cause someone pain what if i just pushed them away from me that can actually be charged as harassment again harassment is a broad statute as well so there are any number of ways harassment can be charged but for a physical harassment there has to be a strike a shove a kick or a push to another person who's involved in an intimate relationship and then that can be charged as harassment under the classification of domestic violence”
“now looking at the opposite end of the spectrum we have our third degree assault which is typically charged we can see harassment charge there's another level of assault that can be charged and unfortunately we see this charge quite frequently especially here in colorado and that is a second degree assault also known as a strangulation now with those types of charges they're they're a little bit more nuanced so we dig into that more in a later video but for our sake today just knowing that there are different levels of assault harassment and other charges that can be charged as domestic violence there's any number of ways that you can be charged with an act of domestic violence but those assaults and harassments are the most commonly seen charges in domestic violence cases”
