This man is pathetic excuse for a human who has NOT (and I repeat has NOT) been trained to use violence against people. He was trained to repair heliocopters and saw little to no actual combat in his deployments. This I know.

The girlfriend is not the mother of the child, that is his ex wife, and he also has a current estranged wife as well. And as I hear it, a child with each.

I guess we figured out two things this guy does well procreates and apparently torturing. He deserves to rot in jail.

This guy should be hung by his Balls… till he’s dead!

I think Sandy meant the girlfriend and not the mom. It may not have been totally clear in the excerpts I posted that Tabor was living with another woman who was not the girl’s mother. That’s who the police are considering charging, not the girl’s actual mother.

I’m not sure the girlfriend mentioned in the story is also the mom? It sounded like the little girl lives with him for 5 months and with her mom the rest of the time; I got the impression the girlfriend is this guy’s current girlfriend.

Anyway. Yet another example of how the armed forces does nothing to ease these combat veterans back into society after their tours of duty. Fantfrickingtastic.

Oh yeah Sandy, if I were the ex-partner of a demonstrably violent man who was trained to use violence against people, and who clearly has major issues surrounding impulse/anger control, it’d be TOTALLY appropriate to blame me if I were too scared for my life perhaps “irresponsible enough” to “let” him abuse my child, especially when we don’t live together for me to be around during the abuse.

Way to go, nice to see that as always it’s possible to pass the blame away from violent men onto women.

There are lots of parents out there who put pressure on their kids to perform. I’ve also heard of them being punished to varying degrees for not living into expectations.

I understand heat and pressure make diamonds.. but they also make.. whatever the fuck this is.

Wow. He has more than anger issues…

I admit I get mad at my kids…but NEVER have I ever thought it was ok to threaten my kids with something they were scared of. The most I threatened my son with is not getting a cookie or putting his toys away or time out.

And for the record…the mom SHOULD be charged with something for allowing him to do something like that (assuming she knew of it). They both need therapy and some parenting classes…at the least.
