Dastardly Dads: Dad arrested for shaking 7-week-old son; baby in "extremely critical" condition (Phoenix, Arizona)

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.

Father Accused of Shaking Newborn Baby

Posted Monday, October 6th 2014 @ 4pm (KFYI News)

A Phoenix man is arrested for allegedly shaking his 7-week-old son.

On Sunday, the mom leaves the baby in Guadalupe Gonzales' care. He originally tells police he takes a Percocet and lays down on the sofa with the baby on the floor below. The man says he wakes up after falling off the sofa and landing on the infant.

The father also claims the baby falls a few inches when he gives him a shower afterwards. He later recants his story and tells police his son wouldn't stop crying so he shakes him about fifteen times.

Gonzales is being charges with child abuse -- a class 2 felony. The child is in extremely critical condition.
