A Missouri father is facing charges after ordering his daughter to hit another girl, and egging her on while the other child cried.
Maurice Fox was captured on video boarding his daughter’s school bus and instructing her to get violent with the seven-year-old girl.
Fox, who is facing a felony harassment charge and multiple misdemeanour charges, told KSDK that he was trying to “empower” his daughter and get her to stand up to a bully.
Footage shows the vengeful dad on the school bus telling his daughter, “Do what I told you to do.”
He then addresses the alleged pint-size bully: “Don’t put your hands on my daughter no more — you hear me, little girl?”
Fox’s daughter begins punching the girl in front of other students, as her dad demands she continue to attack.
“Again!,” he orders.
