This cute photo is to counteract the horror of the story below.
You’re playing your Xbox 360, you’re really into your game, and your 17-month old daughter accidentally knocks the console over. Do you:
a) Chuckle to yourself about having a clumsy kid?
b) Explain to her that she has to be more careful and give her a “time out” in her room?
c) Punch her in the face until she’s dead?
I think you know where I’m going here.
Tyrone Spellman punched his daughter when she did just that, and now she is dead. He faces murder charges. Do not be like Tyrone, your Xbox isn’t worth it.
