A Wisconsin father is accused of beating his 5-year-old son to death for eating his Father's Day cheesecake.
Travis Stackhouse, 29, of Milwaukee allegedly admitted to investigators that he punched son both in the gut and face after becoming upset that others were eating his Fathers Day cake, a criminal complaint obtained by WITI in Milwaukee stated.
A 911 call on Saturday led to first responders finding the boy unresponsive. He was pronounced dead on the scene. He had suffered bruising to both of his eyes, a cut on his sternum and on his lip, according to WITI.
Initially the father claimed he witnessed his son somersaulting down the stairwell and that the child later began vomiting and complaining of feeling sick, according to the criminal complaint. An autopsy however, indicated otherwise and the death was ruled a homicide.
Stackhouse lived with his girlfriend and five children.
Later, in an interview with investigators, Stackhouse allegedly admitted that he became irate when he caught three of the five children, including the victim, eating his Fathers Day cheesecake. That discovery led him violently assault the 5-year-old, according to the complaint. The boys mother called 911 while Stackhouse went out to a bar, according to the Associated Press.
Stackhouse's girlfriend often warned him not to hit the children so hard, Stackhouse allegedly told investigators, according to the complaint.
Stackhouse has since been charged with first-degree reckless homicide, according to online jail records. Hes being held on a $100,000 cash bond. Its not clear if he has a lawyer who can speak on his behalf.
Sick bastard
The evil from the past two nights debates personified.
Here's a flash bimbos - when you have to ask the monster to not 'hit the children so hard' you need to pack your bags and let him murder some one else's child....
somersaulting down the stairwell
Here he is; a Grade A dumbass idiot who should be sterilized.
He saw the child ‘somersaulting down the stairs’ and thought that child was still okay. She really knows how to pick
em. He probably still doesn’t quite get why he’s in trouble.
What a story. “Don’t hit them so hard”.
Well, it’s good to have a man that takes an interest in the child-rearing. /s
What decent father would not have given his 5 year-old son ALL of his stupid Father’s Day cheesecake and be smiling from ear to ear when he did?
Too many in America have absolutely lost their soul. . . . Very sad. Pathetic.
What a story. “Don’t hit them so hard”.
He learned everything he knows from his father, the devil.
Big Man!

A child is in greatest danger from mommy’s boyfriend.
Geeze that must have been SOME cheesecake.
Maybe it’s just the guy trying to look tough for his mugshot - OTOH, he has this defiant IDGAF look on his face.
I love cheesecake, but I’m not going to kill my kids over it.
Sad.
And the surviving children who watched as their father beat a sibling to death will grow up equally damaged.
The cycle of dysfunction perpetuates.
Ah, The Great Society continues to produce animals who do not give a damn about humanity. Liberalism Kills.
Sterilized?
Fill his maw with cheesecake and duct tape shut,
Hose clamp to nostrils.
All the cheesecake he wants for the rest of his life.
