Dad charged with 1st-degree murder in death of 28-day-old daughter (Abbeville, Louisiana)

Dad ADOLPHO IRACHETA JR. is facing 1st-degree murder charges in the death of his infant daughter, who was only 28-days old. Basically, Daddy Dearest battered and shook the baby to death, who was initially hospitalized in an unresponsive condition with a fractured skull, bleeding behind the eyes, and bruised and fractured ribs.

Note that Daddy is in the highest risk group there is for infant violence: a father with a history of DOMESTIC VIOLENCE and DRUG ABUSE. These types should NEVER be allowed around babies or young children.

Why was this child put at risk? Was Daddy babysitting while the battered mama was forced to work to support him? Did he have visitation, or God forbid, custody? The context is not clarified here.
