United States v. Torres-Diaz,
438 F.3d 529 (5th Cir. Jan. 30, 2006) (Connecticut conviction
of second-degree assault under Conn. Gen.Stat. § 53a-60(a)(2)
("with intent to cause physical injury to another person,
he causes such injury to such person or to a third person
by means of a deadly weapon or a dangerous instrument other
than by means of the discharge of a firearm"), with a
five-year suspended sentence, constituted a conviction of
"aggravated assault" as used in U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2
n.1(B)(iii), and is thus a "crime of violence" under
U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(ii), for purposes of imposing a
16-level enhancement of sentence for illegal re-entry, because
the offense of conviction tracks the Model Penal Code definition
of "aggravated assault" almost exactly).
