Ross

I believe the answer is:

maim

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">hurt badly</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for maim that I've seen before include "Hurt badly" , "Injure or harm severely" , "Injure seriously, leaving permanent damage" , "Wound and cripple" , "Injure (a person), causing permanent disability" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, the Universal, the King Feature Syndicate and The Wall Street Journal.
