The police have confirmed the evil actions of a father who chose to discipline his children using electric cattle prods.

Sources from local media outlets detailed how the dad found nothing wrong with his behavior and felt that it was necessary to teach the children a lesson.

But many were in a state of absolute disbelief as they felt this type of behavior was not necessary and it was so tragic how the dad found it alright to engage in this.

Anthony L. Jones is now behind bars for the disgusting behavior and now, he will face at least 32 differnet accounts related to criminal abuse, as confirmed by the police today.

The dad who hails from Kentucky in the US faces 32 differnet counts for the behavior as the kids were so young and below the age of 12.

While they screamed and yelled in pain and disbelief at their own dad’s actions, he says that it was for his own good. He further justified the ordeal by mentioning that he first threatened them with the hot stick. But when he saw that they were not getting fearful of the act, he decided to use the hot stick against them.

“I wanted them to stay under control and keep them in check. I can see why I am being punished but as I said before, it was for their own good”- he went on to rant on the matter.

Since then, the suspect has pleaded not guilty to all of the charges put up against him but the case is extensive and will certainly be going on for a while before a final conclusion is made.
