Harrod v. State

John Harrod (defendant) discovered his wife Cheryl entertaining another man, Calvin Crigger, at their home. John burst out with a hammer, chased the pair through the house, and at one point threw the hammer near where his infant son Christopher sat in his crib, though it only lodged in the wall. John then retrieved a knife, threatened Cheryl with it near her arm, and continued pursuing Calvin outside. John was charged with attempted assault against both Christopher and Cheryl and with carrying a deadly weapon with intent to injure, and was convicted.
