Dastardly Dads: Boy abused by dad back in 2004 dies from injuries (Fayetteville, North Carolina)

Contrary to fathers' rights propaganda, father perpetrators (along with stepdads and caretaker boyfrends) dominate the most vicious crimes against children: sexual assault, abusive head trauma, murder-suicides, crimes involving gun violence, and other similar forms of physically violent/fatal child abuse. And as more dads are providing child care (either because mom is working and can't find other care, or because dads are increasingly getting unsupervised visitation/custody through the family courts), more dads are are being found guilty of basic child abuse and neglect as well.

10/25/15 -Because of severe time constraints, we are no longer able to do regular updates at Dastardly Dads. We will occasionally post articles on general studies on child abuse/domestic violence, news pieces involving abusive fathers in custody/visitation situations. We wil also be updating the Killer Dads and Custody lists, while looking for a better, more accessible platform for the data.

7/11/16 - We started this blog on June 24, 2009--just over seven years. And like all good things, it's time to bring this project to a close. It has served its purpose. We have close to 10,500 postings regarding fathers and child abuse, with hundred of those cases being enabled by the family courts, social services, and others in authority. The documentation is clear. It is now time to stop documenting and put that energy into changing the situation that puts thousands of mothers and children at risk every day.

Fayetteville boy dies seven years after abuse

Fayetteville, N.C. — A Fayetteville boy who was abused by his father in 2004 recently died of his injuries, police said Tuesday.

Fayetteville police spokesman Gavin MacRoberts said investigators were notified that Jeremiah Farris, 9, died at WakeMed. The boy has been hospitalized since he was abused as a toddler.

The boy's father, Harold Farris, was convicted in 2006 of felony child abuse and child abuse inflicting serious injury. He served more than two years in prison, and his parole ended in September 2009, according to state Department of Correction records.

MacRoberts said investigators are looking into Jeremiah's death, but no additional charges have been filed.
