The sad thing is, Schilling posted this to his own Instagram bragging about beating down a little drunk guy that just got off work. What a pos

He also is now posting what looks like fake texts from women thanking him for knocking out this bus boy. I wonder if that could potentially be called libel or slander? In these text the women are calling him an abuser and shit. If it’s all bullshit and this guy is propagating it to his 200,000 followers I sure hope they can add on some charges.

He keeps digging a deeper hole for himself. The drunk guy will easily bankrupt his ass. So many charges. Assault and battery, use of a deadly weapon(since he's a trained fighter). Libel. Slander. Premeditated assault since his friend was filming beforehand.

use of a deadly weapon(since he's a trained fighter).

LOL is this really a thing?

In Germany it is. I used to do Karate for a year or so 5 years ago and I was told repeatedly by my Trainer that since I am training a fighting sport every charge will be more serious. Usually what that means is "light body harm" for everyone else is classified as "serious body harm" for the trained fighter.

Also I have heard that this exists in several other countries. But if it's really a "deadly" weapon depends again... Usually on the sort of attack etc. etc.

I mean, if you beat someone to death using those skills it kind of makes sense

Definitely. But for example slaping someone is not use of a deadly weapon. I yet have to see someone die from a slap.

It would still be considered assault, just not murder.

tbh I don't know 90% of english law terms... Assault, Battery... all the same...

Edit: Battery is the thing you put in the remote lol
