• Sickening YouTube video shows girl whipped 20 times by furious father
• Poster claims to be daughter of Texas Court-at-Law judge William Adams
• Girl's mother joins in horrific attack

This horrific video allegedly shows a family law judge viciously beating his disabled 16-year-old daughter, who suffers from cerebral palsy, after catching her playing computer games.

The man, believed to be Court-at-Law judge William Adams from Aransas County, Texas, is seen repeatedly striking the girl using a leather belt as she whimpers in agony.

After delivering around 10 powerful strikes across her legs and backside, his wife then grabs the belt from him to take over, at which point he walks out only to return moments later with another belt so he can continue the beating.



Sickening: A man said to be a Texas family law judge brutally whips his disabled daughter in a video clip that has caused shock and outrage after being uploaded onto the internet.



Attack: The girl, who suffers from cerebral palsy, yelps in pain as her father beats her repeatedly with the leather belt for playing on her computer



Threats: The man jabs his finger at the girl while screaming foul abuse as she cowers in fear



Violent: The mother joined in the attack on the 16-year-old who is believed to suffer from cerebral palsy

As the girl begs him to stop he can be heard snarling: 'Bend over the F***ing bed

'Lay down or I'll spank you in the F***ing face.'

The shocking footage appears to have been filmed on a webcam and is said to date from 2004 but only became public in recent weeks.

It was uploaded onto the Reddit website late last month by a person claiming to be the victim - the judge's daughter Hillary.

The girl is said to have suffered from ataxic cerebral palsy from birth and has a passion for technology. She is believed to have illegally downloaded the video game as well as music.

She writes that she'd decided to post the footage - which she'd been 'holding onto until the right time' - after receiving 'a barrage of harassment' in a phone call from her father.



Ganging up: The father and mother stand over the girl both brandishing belts. She is believed to have split from him after suffering years of emotional abuse



Take that: The furious father unleashes a powerful backhander as the sickening attack continues



Tough: The man's face is revealed in a still from the video. He is said to be a judge William Adams from Aransas County, Texas

The title reads: 'Family law judge beats own daughter for using the internet, please spread'.

The video has incited fury on twitter with dozens posting their disgust.

@Johnny_Ads wrote: oh my god. what a disgusting video. im shocked. poor girl - what repulsive parents. Shame on them.

And @eschaton added: I hope this exposure gets him sent to prison for a good, long time.

In total the girl receives 20 hard lashes from her father and one from her mother.

She screams: You turn over like a 16-year-old and take it like a grown woman.'

As she lies crying on her bed he shouts: 'Do you want to put some more computer games on?

'Are you happy disobeying your parents?

'If I hear so much as you raising your f***ing voice to me or your mother with the wrong tone or do one little thing or you look at me f***ing wrong, I'm going to wear your f***ing a** out with this belt.'



Unknown identity: It is claimed the man in the video is Aransas County court judge William Adams

Although it has not been confirmed that the man shown is Judge Adams, several people have posted comments below the video claiming it is definitely him.

One post from a J. Andre Bardin, who claims to be one of Hillary's friends, reads: 'I know in the article you say you cannot confirm the man in the video is him, but I can. It's him.

'That's his voice, that's his mannerisms, and that is his house.'

The woman, thought to be judge Adam's wife, who is seen in the video delivering a single blow to her daughter, is said to have left the marriage after suffering emotional abuse.

She has apparently apologised for taking part in the beating and allowing it to happen.



Taken from here.

People are fucked up.

parents hit their kids all the time, no big deal. my aunt used to beat my mentally challenged cousin all the time for the dumbest reasons. some people just dont know how to discipline their child and would often resort to violence. what surprises me is that the mom was supporting this too. i guess if you're going to traumatize your teenage daughter you might as well go all out.

Christian Republican family values. DEM 'PUDDERS BE EVUL YAH HEARH?!

Doesn't really make it okay to do it though. Especially that fucking hard.

Most don't go this far though - especially not these days in the Western world. This guy even threatened to hit that girl in the face -- totally unreasonable.



It would seem that the Chinese take the "redneck southerner" approach to disciplining their kids.

Unfortunately yes - quite a few Chinese parents beat their kids (there are lots of Chinese people here, so I know). But that doesn't make it "no big deal" IMO.

if you're chinese then i'm sure you've seen one of these

it's my grandmother's favourite weapon. you know best not to fuck with to grandma when she's got this in her hand. oh the good ol' beatings~

Just letting you guys know that upon seeing a video like this I'd normally think to myself "Things like this happen all the time and there's nothing I can do about it; I should just forget about it." But this judge is up for re-election next week so I felt it important to expose him (it looks like the rest of the internet is doing a good job of that though; this is quickly becoming one of the most viral videos on the net). So yeah . . . I didn't post it just for the heck of it.

This judge must be freaking out right now. His personal info is posted everywhere online and tons of people are calling him and sending him stuff in the mail.

Yeah, dude's a piece of shit. It does happen a lot more often than people probably think. Whipping your kids for acting up is one thing (I got the "switch" treatment. Had to go outside and pick the stick I wanted to get hit with ;__;) but full-on beating the shit out of them and cussing at them is pretty pathetic. That's why I think more people should be made to be unable to have kids AKA fixed. I hate any kind of domestic violence because it enrages me to see stupid people unable to handle issues with anything but violence and fear. I had to watch a kid I grow up with beat his girlfriend/wife many times just because he was drunk and got his "feelings hurt". It's fucking sad.

i couldn't watch the video but i'm proud of the daughter for posting this. just reading and seeing the pics took me back to a place i don't ever wish to think about again. if only i had evidence like that, i would post it as well.

I watched this explode on Tuesday. It was the first time I had access to enough realtime sources to see direct cause and effect; It was fucking fascinating.

Shit tapped into old memories and primal rage.
It'll be mildly satisfying to see him fall.

I have to admit that it was rather amusing watching this become a relatively small internet story (when I first saw the video, there wasn't much to be found about this anywhere other than the link to the YouTube video on Reddit) to becoming major international news within a matter of hours.

Anyway, it looks like the daughter of this judge wants to help him, but it honestly looks like he can't be helped. He's already said that he apologized back when he beat his daughter (which his daughter says is complete bullshit) and he seems to think that doing this was purely "discipline". Even if this guy ever seeks "help" (or claims to have seeked "help"), it would be unwise to allow him to continue being a judge. Any judge that says things like "Ignore kids; they're fantasizers that should never be taken seriously" is unfit to be a judge.

It looks like there have been multiple death threats made towards this judge. I certainly won't encourage anyone to kick this guy's ass, but if someone does it I'll understand why they did it. I won't be surprised at all if someone kicks his ass within two or three days.

The only thing that concerns me a bit right now is how the young sister of the girl attacked in the video still lives with this judge. The entire internet knows where this judge lives. There have been a ton of death threats towards him and loads of people have been sending pizzas, gay hookers, and all sorts of stuff to his house just to annoy him. Hopefully the youngest daughter will be staying elsewhere while this judge's life is in jeopardy.

What irks me the most are all the emotionally tormenting comments he makes to her. Any half-intelligent man would know that that pain is likely to last a lifetime and will probably breed more pain.

I live by the principle that the cardinal conviction of mankind should be to reduce, or, more optimistically, eliminate, suffering, from the human experience. I don't blame him for who he is---nature is insidious---, but, unfortunately, he has clearly evolved into an infection, which, logically, is best to be extinguished. Anyone I would see fit to be a judge would rule he receive immediate intensive counseling to deduce whether there is potential he could one day live his life without spreading suffering, and, if not, he should be executed painlessly, and soon.

I remember when I got expelled from high school my mom was fucking furious. When she went to pick me up from the principle's office she was all well mannered and calm... even on the car ride home she was clam, as soon as we got to the house and i went in my room she came in and started throwing shoes and anything she could get her hands on at me. She even threw a cordless phone that hit me in the arm and broke in pieces, shit hurt. I pushed her out of my room and locked my door. We hadn't spoke for like a week after that.

That's fucked up. I didn't want to watch the video.


What sort of "pearls of wisdom" are those? He sounds like an utter twat.

I had the opposite problem, in a way. My dad used to act all calm when we were at home but as soon as we got in public he would do his punishing. It didn't even have to be for something that happened recently either, . Sometimes it would be over something that happened weeks ago that was never mentioned at all at home but then as soon as we got out in public it was all of a sudden a huge issue. Maybe that's why I don't like to go outside, - I'm trained to associated the outdoors with pain and humiliation.

I shouldn't have watched that.
You know, I'm sorry but I don't know if this is the right place to post shit like that.
I mean it's not your fault, I'm probably just overly sensitive, but I've been through shit like that too, and it looks like I'm not the only one here.
I've been through 10 years of pain and humilliation just like that and worse, and srsly? Watching that made it all come back.
I mean it's not like that was the only thing happening to me and it wasn't even the worst thing, but hell, I've been working for years to get over that shit, or at least forget it since I can't really cope with it anyway, and now just like that, I'm right fucking back where I started.
I watched that 2 days ago and it took till now and a shitload of weed for me to be able to even type this.
Fuck.

Uhm, why did you even come in this thread in the first place if the title explains what the content will be? Derp

I know that some people out there are too sensitive to watch videos of this sort. But I'm not forcing anyone to watch it.

This was a brand new story when I came across it; I wanted to do my part in helping expose this judge. I would've almost felt guilty not to have created this topic after seeing the vid.

Yes. Truth hurts sometimes.
You weren't tricked into watching the video so can't really complain.
I for one knew I didn't need to see it, so I didn't click it.

Ugh, I'm sorry. I was stoned and frustrated when I wrote that.
I'm a bit embarrassed about it, now that I'm sober again.

I'd be willing to bet that there are even statistics saying how often stuff like this happens every x seconds..

I'm usually not a person to vote for governmental control in private sectors, however the world is so filled with people that aren't able to deal with their aggressions without lacing out against others, that at times I think something like a psychological test, maybe something like the ones if you want to adopt a child, should be worked out by professional psychologists.
This is of course only a "mild example" of violence against children and some might call me ignorant for saying this, but I'm convinced some people really shouldn't be allowed to raise kids. A lot of misery could be avoided..

anonymous also think that judge adams needs some kind of punichment
