When I read the headline, at first I though that this was going to be another Amazingly Stupid Story:

A Grand Jury Just Called Tweeting an Animated GIF ‘Assault With a Deadly Weapon’

But in fact, the jury got it right. The animated gif in question is apparently one that flashes real fast in a way meant to cause epileptic seizures. The gif in question was sent by a stalker to a victim who he knew had epilepsy, in the hopes that it would cause a seizure. And the gif in question actually caused a seizure.

What a fascinating modern world we live in.
