Okay I just read the Honolulu Advertiser today online (4/19/06). In one story a young male reversed his car into a police officer's SUV in an attempt to get away from a roadblock in Haleiwa. He was charged with attempted murder.
Now another story tells of a 27-year old woman repeatedly ramming another woman's car off the road and this woman is charged with criminal property damage.
So if it's a cop's car it's attempted murder...if it's anyone else it's simple criminal property damage. Never mind that the woman that was rammed off the road was the new girlfriend the ex-girlfriend wanted to apparently get violent against. The guy that rammed the police officer was intending to just get away with no intent of killing an officer.
He was hitting a car that was in the way
She was hitting a car to hurt it's occupant
He is charged with attempted murder
She is charged with criminal property damage
She must have been that good looking to sway the cops from filing an attempted murder charge against her.
Oh and yet another story tells of a 47-year old woman throwing a screwdriver at another woman grazing her leg and is charged only with terroristic threatening.
This woman uses a screwdriver to hurt someone and is charged with terroristic threatening.
The other woman uses a car to hurt someone and is charged with criminal property damage
The guy uses his car to move a cop's car outta the way and is charged with attempted murder
His mistake was that he should have repeatedly rammed the cop's car until it ran off the road and his only charge would have been criminal property damage.
Or he could have just thrown a screwdriver at the cop and get charged with terroristic threatening.
