Dad arrested for assaulting 10-year-old daughter with "cattle stick" (Smith County, Tennessee)

Dad is identified as JOE GREEN JR.

Wonder if this is a custody/visitation situation. Notice that there is no mention of the mother, and that there is specifically no mention of her also "staying" at the home of the paternal grandparents.
