    This is a 14 year old boy. Concussed and battered. He was brutally beaten by a 38 year old active duty soldier named Jordan Grinnell....at a recreational soccer game.

        Hope the kid is okay. Also, misdemeanor assault? Seems like a felony to me if it took 9 other dads to stop him.

        He was charged with misdemeanor assault. Seriously? White privilege at work... again. This grown as man professionally trained for combat brutally beat a tween. Amazing!

        What's the difference between misdemeanor battery vs felony battery in Virginia? The minor victim was violently battered by an adult, resulting in a concussion and visible injuries to his head and face. This looks like a case of under charging the suspect, I wonder why? 🤔◾&◽😒

        Active duty soldier - meaning his very person is a weapon and I'm reading he is being charged with a misdemeanor? What branch is he in? I have questions.

        Simply being a "soldier" doesn't make your body a weapon. Not everyone in the military has a combat arms profession. Soldier typically means Army. If he is in fact in the Army (active duty) and stationed in Southeast Va the likelihood of him being infantry is slim.

        Unconscionable. To paraphrase Baldwin: to be at all conscious and to have even a shred of empathy is to be in a constant state of rage at the perpetual assault upon dignity and the regular absence of justice, in this country and everywhere power is abused.

        I hope the child doesn’t have long lasting trauma from this attack. I hope his attacker is prosecuted to the fullest, and banned from any further affiliated functions.

        UCMJ should address that horrendous beating he gave that 14yr old boy. Military Justice can be quite unforgiving beating up a kid serves no purpose nor should it be tolerated.
