Father given jail time for spanking 16-year-old daughter

The reason is you have not provided any type of evidence that would confirm what you have said.

Having a profile that says you are from McMinnville, TN means nothing.

I could create a profile that says Im posting from a secret moon base.
That doesn't mean im actually on the moon now does it?

The more important question is, did big daddy pull up his daughters skirt, then pull down her knickers, and preceed to spank her bare, tight arse until it was all red and raw?

If the mother is indeed posting here, I would ask one question to her.

If you knew this man was abusive, why in the hell did you allow contact between him and your daughter at all?

I'm interested in knowing more of the story. What kind of argument did your ex and daughter have? Has he beat her in the past and how often? What gave you the compunction to go to court and have him charged? Or did the police do this?

'Splain the story, Lucy.

Long story as short as I can put it. We've been separated for close to 2 years, left him in 2006. Kids were at his house (have a temp. parenting plan) with him that night.
The argument was between his g/f and my daughter, he came in and went off on her b/c he thought she told his g/f to not give my son medication. My daughter (carrie) had already given my son medication and told the g/f if she gave him more that she'd overdose him. G/f goes huffing and puffing to 'daddy' who comes out and starts screaming at carrie who is sitting on the living room floor. My 2nd oldest daughter testified as well as she witnessed this.
Dad sat on Carrie and pulled up her shorts, put his leg over her and hit her 15-20 times, got up and said now is she still a liar, carrie says i didn't do anything wrong, if she told you i told her not to give him medicine she is lying, i told her if she gave him more she'd overdose him.
dad throws her back over on the floor and begins hitting her again several more times for a total of 20-30 hits on her posterior right thigh.
Yes he's assaulted me in the past and has had over 15 DCS investigations, been to jail for assault on me in 2003. Long story, lots of personal info and I would tell it all to the news people if I had the chance.
When I got a call from Carrie that morning (she was overnight at dad's) I went straight to the school. School nurse called DCS, told me to go to the ER. ER called DCS and police. We made the report and got an order of protection and had him arrested. This was 11/6/07 when he did this.
During his first testimony in court on 1/22/08 he made sure that judge ross knew tami ross (judge ross' wife) was his divorce atty which threw a mistrial.
John did it on purpose b/c he knew he was in trouble.
Of course we got the new judge, judge cook, on 2/1/08 and of course tami ross was rep. him that day.
He thought Tami ross would get him off.
She couldn't.
When the officer testified that he even went and called DCS after he left the hospital and the judge got major conflicting testimony from John and his girlfriend about what happened that night it was done, he knew John was lying.
And he was lying.
And I am not.

The amount of gullible people on this forum that will believe every lie handed to them astounds me, but I find it highly entertaining :)

Would be a cold day in hell before I would allow my children to be with a man that had a history of abuse and I knew first hand that he was abusive. Damn that. Take the kids and go.

The amount of gullible people on this forum that will believe every lie handed to them astounds me, but I find it highly entertaining :)


And the amout of gullible people who will take a news story at face value and not even seek truth before they flap their yap astounds me.
The part where they talking about him appealing and him being the one giving the story would have been a clue to me.Some people are just not bright enough to think"People do not go to jail in tn for a simple spanking,there has to be more".

Seriously now, I wanted people to know the truth. You guys now do.
This wasn't just a typical spanking.
I'm not against spanking, I do it when I have to.
There is a difference between a spanking and child abuse.
What John did was/is child abuse.

She had his hand prints and bruises for over 8 days you guys.

That is what the people don't know.

it wasn't a spanking.

That's all I want people to know. The truth.

I am gone darlin, long gone. Order of protection is in place. It took a lot of fighting to get to where we are now and it had to come to this to get people's attention.
DCS took pictures at the hospital and just happened to 'lose' them.
The judge was very interested in how in the hell they lost the pictures of supposed child abuse, this was Department of Children's services you know.
It's a lot of drama and yes, I know, a lot to swallow.
Imagine the hell we've been through. Ugh.
That's why I want the truth about him out.
I'm going to contact the news stations and see if we can have a say in what was reported in the news. I think it's only fair.

Julie, don't stay here for this kind of crap the people on here are giving you. You've told them the truth and it's up to them whether or not the want to HEAR it. Fact is, people get away with abuse EVERY day because people choose to not want to hear the truth. You have friends on here who know you are telling the truth in who you are AND in what happened AND in your circumstances. You know where we are too. :D Don't let this people who are ignorant to the situation get to you.

I believe you. thanks for setting the story straight. He is a controlling asshole. The world is full of them. The smartest thing any of us can do is stay away from them. But when the court orders their participation in our lives, that becomes very difficult.

What is really sad is that they screw it up for all the really nice guys out there who wouldn't do such a thing, yet will be treated as though they might.

May this latest episode finally bring a modicum of peace to your family situation.

You are right on there coward, but show me where I ever stated that my profile stating I am from McMinnville TN ever proved that I am this child's mother.
I stated I probably couldn't prove that to you, did I not?
I would like to ask you, what evidence can I show you to prove that I am in fact Julie Cox?
I'm not sure what I can give you that could still be 'fake' as this is the internet and anybody can be anybody.
So...ideas?

Don't worry, I'm not worried about the 'crap' that was thrown at me here.
I think I've proved myself here. I'm heading back to moms with minds now...plus it's almost time to go home for the day. aaaah.
Carrie and Sarah just got here. =D

Mr. Cox further suggested his daughter was lying about the severity of the spanking so she could live with her mother who, in turn, would allow her more access to her (the daughter’s) boyfriend. Mr. Cox said he found disturbing notes between his daughter and her boyfriend causing him to be wary of their relationship. Mr. Cox noted he was granted custody of his children, something he believes made his daughter mad.

Yes he's assaulted me in the past and has had over 15 DCS investigations, been to jail for assault on me in 2003.

You actually haven't proved anything.
I think you are nothing more than a creative writer that knows how to stir the pot.

It will take a GLP mod to post on here and verify your identity before I believe anything you have said.
