I guess controlling his teenage daughter was out of the question. It usually is.
He’s not going to be controlling his daughter very well from prison, which is where he belongs.
A guy I know has a daughter who was dating a real loser several years ago. The dad made a comment that he had thought about shooting him and burying out on the farm where no one could find him....”but she would just find some other loser to go out with.” She did eventually wise up and is now a nurse, the loser ended up in jail.
