“Evidence has been presented that [Defendant did not know that Agent Richard Henley was a peace officer. The burden is on the state to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that [Defendant knew that Agent Richard Henley was a peace officer. If you have a reasonable doubt as to whether [Defendant knew that Agent Richard Henley was a peace officer, you must find [Defendant not guilty of the crime of aggravated assault on a peace officer with a deadly weapon.[ ] A “peace officer” is any ... public [official] or public officer vested by law with a duty to maintain public order or to make arrests for [a] crime, whether that duty extends to all crimes or is limited to specific crimes.”

In doing so, we examine the plain language of the statute as well as the context in which it was promulgated, including the history of the statute and the object and purpose the Legislature sought to accomplish. We must take care to avoid adoption of a construction that would render the statute’s application absurd or unreasonable or lead to injustice or contradiction.”
