Dastardly Dads: Dad gets 9 years for beating death of 4-month-old son (Miami, Florida)

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.

A North Miami man will serve nine years in prison after pleading guilty Wednesday to the beating death of his 4-month-old son.

Yosi Mahlab, 33, pleaded guilty to manslaughter for the 2012 death of his son, Javon, who suffered a head injury and bleeding in the brain.

Mahlab had been trying to feed the baby at his apartment in the 600 block of Northeast 123rd Street. He confessed to slapping the child twice, causing the boy to hit his head on a nightstand.

The child died after spending three weeks in a coma.

Mahlab originally had been charged with second-degree murder. He also pleaded guilty to child neglect and aggravated child abuse.
