Assault often is a charge used in cases involving offensive physical contact, though it can refer to threats, sex acts, or inflicting fear. Aggravated assault is a charge that specifically deals with those cases which involve serious injury or great bodily harm less than murder, so primarily deals with physical assault and assaults with weapons.
Aggravated assault can be committed against anyone, though specific legislation exists for cases involving domestic disturbances, including spousal abuse, abuse of a former boyfriend/girlfriend, or assault committed against someone living in the offender’s household.
