"Stay-at-home" dad charged with felony assault against infant daughter (Stow, Ohio)

Seems to be a case of yet another short-tempered deadbeat dad (i.e. a "stay-at-home") who assaulted the baby, probably because the poor thing was "frustrated."

So many moms in this economy no longer have the privilege of staying at home with their babies. They have to work. And this is what happens when unemployed/underemployed men take their place.... 

This one is identified as JOHN F. CARLOW.

Stow police arrest father of infant in alleged abuse case

A Stow man is facing two felony charges following a police investigation into a brain injury suffered by his infant daughter.

Stow police recently arrested John F. Carlow, 29, at his Waterford Circle residence on a warrant for charges of felonious assault and endangering children, both second-degree felonies.

According to a police report, a social worker told Stow police on Sept. 15 that the infant had bleeding in her brain, possibly the result of "shaken baby injuries" that occurred sometime that day or the day before.

Police did not release any further information regarding the baby's injuries or condition.

Stow police Lt. Anne Stirm said the baby was brought to Akron Children's Hospital by a parent for treatment.

"We were contacted by a social worker who is employed with the hospital," Stirm said, adding that no other details were available because of the ongoing investigation.

Carlow is being held on a $250,000 cash bond, according to the Summit County Sheriff's Office.

 Police reports indicates Carlow is a stay-at-home father. The child's mother is listed as a witness.
