Court acquits on primary charge but convicts on attempted aggravated assault with five-year sentence.

The court acquitted the defendant of the primary charge of attempted aggravated assault but found him guilty of the subsidiary charge of attempted aggravated assault with premeditation. Evidence showed the defendant repeatedly beat the victim with great force, failing to intervene when the violence escalated despite realizing the danger to life. The court imposed a five-year prison sentence, applying mitigation for diminished responsibility due to personality disorders and lack of prior convictions.
