Could you get attempted murder for choking someone out in a fight?
I've always thought that if a fight went to the ground I'd choke someone out but I was thinking about that tonight but could they try to throw an attempted murder charge on you? Like you could say "I was just choking him until he was unconscious" and that sounds really bad anyways. They could've pulled you off him after you choked him unconscious and could say you were trying to choke him to death.
I always figured choking someone out was better than breaking something because breaking things is pretty serious but now that I think about it choking someone out in a fight is pretty serious. Especially if you aggravated the fight somehow.
