This is going to be an unpopular opinion but if news reports are accurate you really shouldn't be beating other people's kids with a switch.

If the kid is getting annoying, call their parents and send them home or wait till the parents come and tell em and don't invite the kid round but beating another persons kid enters touchy territory.....

Keep in mind to some of these white folks any type of mark on a child is nightmarish.

My sister is light skin and moms used to catch her with the switch fresh out the bath tub. Them whelps were there for a while.
How old your sister now, pleighboi

So vindictive that she sent the kid to Texas to be with him right? Ok. Your act is getting tired.



I got my fair share of whoopings when I was younger, but I was never "abused". You're seriously gonna compare getting a spanking, or getting hit with a belt, to a child needing to be taken to a doctor because his injuries are so bad? But then again, you're a Vikings fan right? So I guess I know what your agenda is.

Until we see the pics you dont know how bad the "injuries" were.

dude on reddit:

Texas Child Abuse detective here, going to provide the little insight I can.
All of the following is based upon the information from sources being accurate
  • The assault/injury to the child occurred some time ago and a report was filed.
  • That report was forwarded to the Grand Jury as a "Grand Jury Referral." Basically that means that no charges have been filed, but the prosecutor (and possibly a detective) want to present the evidence to a jury and ask them if they believe it is something that someone should be arrested for.
  • The case was presented once, No-Billed (meaning not enough evidence to justify arrest or trial) The prosecutor presented it again. Typically this is only done if there is new evidence to be presented, but prosecutors can be sneaky and resubmit it to the grand jury after a new jury is seated (In my county, the jury is replaced every 3 months)
  • Once this jury true-billed the charge, a warrant was issued for AD and a bond was set by a judge to accompany the warrant.
  • AD and his attorneys more than likely agreed to turn himself in, he'll post bond immediately and spend zero time in jail outside of the booking/processing
  • This will go to trial or be plead out, but I'd be surprised if it happens during this football season. Typically our cases don't go to trial for a year or more.
  • Injury to a Child has different felony levels based upon the injuries the child suffered or the circumstances behind the injuries. This one is being reported as Injury to a Child/reckless/negligence. That is what we call a State Jail felony. State Jail Felonies carry a maximum of 2 years in jail and are typically plead out to probation. The weird thing is if this was a case of him "beating" his child it would have likely been filed as Injury to a Child/knowing/intentional which is either a Felony 3 (2-10 years) or a Felony 1 ( (Felony 1 if there is intentional "serious bodily injury or death") Most of the time the reckless/negligence comes when a parent over-disciplines a child by spanking them with a belt or extension cord leaving pattern bruises and cuts on the child's body. I would suspect that was the case here.
  • EDIT: There is a Injury to a Child/Negligence/Reckless that is a Felony 2. However that requires serious bodily injury or death that was caused by negligence or reckless behavior. If that were the case here, it probably would have been indicted the first time it was presented. Going to wager this is the state jail felony variety.
    Of course all of this is speculation based on the current rumors and my personal job experience.
