A Louisiana mom, Schaquana Spears, 30, was arrested and will probably be charged for beating three of her sons for burglarizing their neighbours home...
She said
"I was being a mother who loves her kids, who wants to protect her kids, and steer them in the right direction"
Spears went home from work after she was alerted about her 3 sons ages 13,12,10 and their friends burglarizing a neighbours home. She whipped them with a belt according to her report and made them return their loots.
She was reported to the authority by one of her sons and was arrested for child abuse... According to police report, she beat the boys with an electric cord which left visible marks on their body.
Spears who was bailed from jail by a good Samaritan who heard of the incidence is presently being represented pro-bono by a lawyer who saw the coral video of her interview. (SEE THE VIDEO AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE)
She added;
"I reacted and I'm the bad guy, it's not right. I'd rather discipline my kids than for them to be beaten in the street, caught in someone's home mudered or in someone's prison and me having to visit"
She said she's a good mom and she sent all her children to great schools, also adding that they are all in honour rolls.
She also said their father is in prison and she doesn't want them to and up their.
The Louisiana Department of Children and Family Services said; "reasonable, constructive discipline is a healthy part of parenting but it crosses into abuse when it leaves a child cut, burnt, bloodied or bruised"
Office of the local district Attorney has not filed any charges yet but Spears could face upto 20 years in prison if charged and convicted.
