A Wisconsin man has been charged with felony child abuse, accused of using a dog shock collar to discipline his stepdaughter for not moving fast enough before school.

 

Authorities said Gerald Majeres, 34, wrapped the collar around the 8-year-old's thigh, cranked it to level 4 and shocked her because her mother was upset she wasn't getting ready for school fast enough.

 

 

The device left two bruises on the girl's leg which someone noticed Wednesday at Jefferson Elementary School when the second grader went to class.

The girl told investigators she cried a lot because it hurt a lot, according to a report.

 

"She was just very upset about being shocked with this device and was scared about it," investigator Mike Bloedel said.

 

Investigators said the man confessed to the incident in his Washington County home, saying he wanted to calm her down.

 

The girl is staying with relatives.

 

He is scheduled to be back in court Oct. 17.

:confused: WHAT?! But, but..that's terrible! No one ought to do that to a kid for such ridiculous reasons. (You were joking, yes? I think so..)

 

At any rate, Gerald, or whatever the name was should damn well be charged and convicted of assault. That's absolutely disgusting and sad. The poor girl :(

:D

It is fucked up to use a shock collar on your kid, and it should be considered child abuse. But how come shocking a pet isn't animal abuse? I think using a shock collar is f'd up no matter what or who you use it on.

You weren't complaining about the collar last night.

 

Child abuse? Yes. Animal abuse? No. Certain animals need to be taught boundaries in a slightly harder manner than others.

 

I mean, if a drug-sniffing German Shepherd has been "talked to" rather than "disciplined" it'll never make it on the police force.

I do enjoy a good "shock" after being naughty ;) Are you saying that anythingor anyone not able to comprehend language and dialect should be disciplined by any means necessary? Or is it simply species that draws the line of "abuse"?

I'm not saying that abusing animals is the right thing to do, nor do I practice any such actitivies. On that note, I must say that I defend the right to use such means to discipline animals, especially those that are used for specific functions. (ie bomb-sniffing dogs, et.al.)

 

Just think about how much abuse we endure everyday as human beings and compare it to what a dog or a horse might go through. I mean, we ingest nitrates, cholesterol, fat, grease, nicotine, alcohol, caffine, etc, etc.

 

As guilty as I am of self abuse in those terms, what makes you think that you're so much better being a PETA tree-hugger? Seriously.

First of all, I hate PETA, and the only tree hugging i do is is when its between my lips burning. I just think its sort of mean to use those things on humans or animals.

 

Now, if the animal were attacking someone then I can see where that would be necessary. The same as with people, thats what tazer guns are for. But just to keep a dog from running away, or an eight year old girl who moves to slow is a bit much.

 

I didnt know that they used those in training for the sniffing dogs though. I just thought they used positive reinforcement.

He was charged and the child was removed from the home.

However, ask yourself a question, where was this childs Mother. You know this can't be the first thing that was a little off in this mans way of dealing with this child. So often when you read a story like this, you end up finding out that the Mother is so desperate to have a man in the house for whatever reason that she throws her children to the lions, in that she turns a blind eye to the abuse her children take because of her own weakness.

The Mother was alive and IN THE HOUSE when it was going on and witnessed it...She is as guilty as he was for not stopping in my opinion, but opinions are like ass holes, everyone has one...
