He needs to be set up. He needs to lose his position as a judge. Her discipline problems are impossible to know from a video of her being repeatedly beaten.

LOL.

Who has gone to jail for downloading music?

Or paid hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines?

Why would you turn your daughter in for anything so miniscule? I would hate to be your child...
She bigged up her cerebral palsy and is an unstable woman. I admit her father was wrong in beating her the way he did.

She should have handled this differently, but like the spoiled greedy brat she is, she has made a mess of a family problem that could have been hamdled differently and not in public.

As far as I'm concerned she is no different than Kim Kardashian.

If you want prove as to how unstable and fame hungry Hillary Adams is, just visit her twitter feed.

That's very immature to call for him to be set up. The man needs to be removed from family court, but not the bench.

She got lots of these people fooled. You don't publicly post a video up of your father "brutally?" beating you; than say you weren't trying to create hatred, but show your father needed help. You suggest a therapist and go to the police for help; not the worldwide web! However, lets all just blame it on her cerebral palsy.

No, she doesn't have us fooled. I don't view her as a pinnacle of humanity, and her father as the devil.. I think they are both trashy people and a trashy family...

That doesn't change the fact that this is abuse. It doesn't have to be one or the other....she can be both a brat, and abused at the same time.

It's only abuse to some though. You have to look at it from two different prespectives; if this was true abuse. The media and investigators would be all over this. Children react differently to different types of discipline methods. What may work for one child; may not work for another.

My parents telling me to "Act right!" or "Stop it!" or simply giving me the stare didn't work; I responded very much to the belt though. I didn't grow up to be mentally disturbed or a problematic person. I know people who have never been whupped in their life, but grew up to be a criminal. People just turn out and react differently regardless of past situations.

I could see how someone could see this as abuse, but personally I don't. I dislike the fact that he did approach the situation very angry and overdid it. However, at the same time I don't think it's as bad as people are making it out to be. Saying he needs to rot in hell or be beat in jail. That's too extreme.

I'm disgusted with both of them, but moreso the daughter. Personally the father didn't come off abusive to me. You could tell he was holding back on those hits.
