Dastardly Dads: Dad accused of punching, choking teenage son (Tulsa, Oklahoma)

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.

Tulsa, Okla. — A Tulsa father is accused of punching and choking his teenage son.

Police say 39-year-old Terry Landrum was arrested late Friday night on one count of child abuse by injury.

The 13-year-old son says the incident happened around 7 p.m., near 65th and Boulder.

Landrum is accused of holding the boy down with his knee and punching him in the face. The teen says his father punched him multiple times before also choking him.

Police did find evidence of the abuse, so he was taken to a Tulsa hospital where it was determined he has injuries to his left ear drum.

Landrum was released from the Tulsa County Jail on Saturday after posting bail.
