Believe it or not, this is far from the first time I've seen a father lash out violently at a crying baby or child for having his video game interrupted. Dad EDWARDO CHRISTY is simply the latest. Check out the video game tab for other examples....

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KKCO) - A father who hurt his infant son because he was disturbing his video game was sentenced Monday.

Edwardo Christy will spend the next four years in community corrections.

Christy failed a lie detector test and then admitted he was playing a video game and when the infant wouldn’t stop crying, he picked him up and accidentally hit the baby’s head on the wall and knocked him out.

During sentencing, an emotional Christy said he wants to let his son know he loves him. The baby’s mother says Christy is a good dad and should get another chance.
