Judge This Judge. (Graphic Warning)

This video recently came out from 2004. It shows Texas Judge William Adams striking his then 16 year old daughter multiple times with a belt. At 2:24 in he also says "i'll go get a knife". His daughter's transgression were pirating music and installing a game on the family computer.

Opinions? Especially from the parents out there.

Holy Shit. WTF was that?

Who taped it? Was it the daughter with a hidden camera? Where did this come from? Has anyone involved commented?

Guy should be in jail.

When they say don't mess with the judges in Texas, apparently they're taking to juveniles as well.

Look, based on my experiences, I believe there's an inordinant amount of kids hangin' around that would benefit from a parental whack or two.

But this is clearly criminal. Christ.

Happened 7 years ago she decided to release it just recently. She is an adult now, and her mother has since left the guy. They were on Today show or something, I watched the link earlier, but momma realized she needed to get the hell away from the guy.
