‘Whooping’ improved child’s grades – Court hears
Today he is out on $50,000 bail and is to be back in court on September 9, 2017. The accused made his first appearance in the Magistrate’s Court on Friday May 12, 2017 and pleaded not guilty to two counts of child cruelty.
It was a teacher who was moved with concern for the child who was allegedly in pain and had asked the teacher for ice to put on her aching wounds. Questioning her and examining the child, the teacher was allegedly told by the student that she received a beating from her step-father.
The matter was further taken to the school’s Principal and the Social Development Department. The court heard on Friday that that there were at least two occasions where the child was ‘whooped’.
In the first case, October 4, 2016 she was allegedly beaten for not doing her school work well and the second, interviewed on May 4, 2017 she allegedly told Social Workers she was beaten for eating something that belonged to her mother without permission. In both instances the child was severely beaten with a belt on her hands and legs.
The accused man did admit to police that he “scolded” the child but also said he “hits hard” and that he suffers from anger problem induced by his “war” experiences. The court heard through his attorney Stephen R. Daniels that the step-daughter’s grades had shown significant improvements since the ‘whooping’.

Advise to end it all: Fathers, stop trying to catch every fish in the ocean. Stick around to raise and feed your own children. Establish a close relationship with them and be a huge part of their lives. This is a win win situation! (I am not saying that there are not good stepfathers out there, but 8 out of 10, your children catch pure hell.) BUT, hats off to those stepfathers who keep it REAL!
Hmmm why the mother of the child not beating he own child why is it she is allowing this man to put his hands on a child that not his? Where the %&*(is the mother? Why the f)&$ the school is the one to report this! I am friends of both and I find this is bs. That a f)(k%$g girl child. Stop allowing a man to put his hands on your child. Look at the bs reasons eating something that is not her...and her grades are low... if it low help her. The child can't focus under this kinda of stress and abuse!
As for this step father your @$$$ need to be lock up or be fine!!!! Maybe she the mother will pay that bill too....
1). “hits hard” and that he suffers from anger problem induced by his “war” experiences?
2). Step father beats her because she did not to her work well?
3). He beat her because she ate something of her mothers without permission?
All understanderable but to that extent? And we sitting up here but spare the rod and spoil the child? Is the child a rude child? Mother why are you not correcting your own child that you did not father with this man? Because he is the bread winner that gives him the
right to discipline her to that extent then you want somebody have a pity party for you because you have anger problem? Well since you know you have this problem you should abstain from disciplining any body children knowing there is a chance that you can bring more damage like you almost did.
Well I had a daughter and I also had a husband that was not her father. He was the bread winner and the only thing I ask of her was please to respect him because he not only the provider but he also was my choice. Other than that, disciplining belongs to me but, maybe there is a little more going on.
Your majestrate please send him anger management so he can understand why he doing prison time for child abuse
I swear many of us slave descendants have no d.mn sense. We truly have been destroyed.
