This was posted on Youtube by the daughter.The daughter states she had been keeping the video until now. Graphic in terms of the language used and length of the beating.

You do have to sign in to Youtube to see the video

Here is the video from LiveLeak if you don't want to use Youtube

This judge is wayyyy out of line.

He should have left it to the ULEOs.

Hopefully, the father will go to prison for that.

” Take your beating like a woman “ - the girls mother.

I kid you not for anyone who has not seen this video. These two are sick, twisted individuals.

And please, for the corporal punishment people out there - watch the video in full before making any comments. This guy is so way over the top its criminal.

“The judge’s wife was emotionally abused herself and was severely manipulated into assisting the beating and should not be blamed for any content in this video.”

I disagree with that opinion

The video has a disclaimer about the mother’s role. The mother was complicit and should face criminal charges also. This beating was barbaric.

There’s a difference between discipline and abuse and this was abuse. I got my share of spankings as a child but it was never anything like this. Four whacks on the butt and that was it.

Should have just taken the puter. Abuse it, you lose it.

The daughter hid the video cam. She’s had the vid for a while.

I watched the video front to back, and the mother participated, no doubt not wanting to displease her husband by being less-than supportive. I have spanked my children, but by the time they are teenagers, especially girls, spanking is a non-starter. I can’t remember spanking a child older than four or five, and never for something trivial like being on a computer after hours. The judge crossed the line, and if he could appraise his daughter’s video-capture as a disinterested third party I’m sure he would be impressed.

IMHO, the mom is just as culpable. “Take it like a grown woman.” Oh really? Is that how a grown woman takes a beating in your house, lady?

THIS grown woman would shoot a man who beat me like that.

Happened to me for years and years, just like this. Dad was a big-shot in town, bigger than this guy. One time he got into trouble for something like this, but one of his important friends “fixed it” for him.

I got the belt when I was a kid.....

And maybe a couple of times Dad lost it, kids can make you crazy.

I can only remember the ones I did not deserve....lol.

This guy has some anger issues. Not good judge material.

Love my parents even though they were never perfect.

Another thread

This guy is a judge. Judges are supposed to at least theoretically stay calm, cool, and collective through a trial. They are supposed to be umpires making sure the trial is fair. Bad tempers in judges are frowned upon.

This guy was out of control. For those who saw this, look at the comments he makes. Beating into submission. That's a bully, plain and simple. This wasn't a calm three whacks on the ass for disobedience. This was a power mad guy who lost control. Guys like that shouldn't be judges. I don't practice family law, but if I did, that is the last person I'd want to have a say in the custody of my client's children.

I thank God I didn't have a dad like that. He was an old school guy who didn't believe in losing control of situations. If he tried that if I was 16, we'd have settled this like men.

Looks like she’s out of the house now and finally ready to take Dad down. Good for her. That man is sick. It’s always the little guys that like to beat on women.

I would love to see him get the exact same treatment.

I disagree with that opinion

I also disagree. While I'm sure she's a victim to a degree in that marriage, her first job is to be mom.

I would say that “Dad” just lost his job. That asshole needs to beaten within inches of his life.
