Dastardly Dads: Dad admits hurting 2-month-old daughter (Bixby, 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.

Father admits to hurting 2-month-old daughter

By Michael Purdy

Bixby, Okla. — A Bixby father was arrested Monday night, after being accused of child abuse.

Police say Nathan Putnam was watching his 2-month-old daughter, while the mother and grandmother went to the store.

During this time, the infant began to cry. This bothered Putnam, so he admitted to grabbing the girl's foot and pulling it in a downward position.

A short time later, the mother and grandmother returned home and noticed bruising on the infant's foot.

Putnam described the girl's injury as, "popped blood vessels at the base of the ankle."

A doctor checked out the infant and determined the injury to be consistent with child abuse.
