Yes, a t.u. football player is committing aggrevated assault today, but its ok because it wasn't a woman and he used a brick instead of a gun, so it won't violate the core values. Nothing to worry about.

I believe Johnny was committed today.

The implication of "committed" is that the act is done by someone (hence the word "put"). If Johnny made the decision himself, then "admitted" is more appropriate.
