Williams v. State11/2/2001 ately applied a criminal negligence standard to all of the crimes he was accused of committing, thereby lowering the necessary standard of conviction. The verdict, itself, however, proves this argument to be meritless. Although Williams was indicted for driving under the influence and aggravated assault along with the other crimes, the jury ultimately acquitted him on these charges. Clearly, the jury was able to employ common sense and discern that, although the aggravated assault charges arose from improper use of an automobile, the aggravated assault was not a traffic violation involving criminal negligence. We must assume that the jury applied this same modicum of common sense to the remaining charges as well.
Judgment affirmed. Pope, P. J., and Mikell, J., concur.
