Father Charged With Raping Own Child

FAST FACTS:

• 18-year-old father charged with raping 8-day-old daughter
• Father also faces second-degree battery charge
• Judge increased bond
• Mother says he has mental health issues
• Child also suffered fractured skull in the reported attack

(Forrest City, AR, 9/02/2008) It's a heinous crime that sends chills down your spine. A teenage father, in Forrest City, Arkansas, is charged with raping the daughter he helped give life.



18-year-old Reginald Davis is behind bars, charged with raping his eight-day-old daughter Monday night.

Wednesday Davis made his first appearance in court. Because of the severity of the crime, the judge increased Davis' bond from $50,000 to $100,000.

Safety concerns forced officials to hold his first appearance in court separately, away from other inmates. Grrr - Throw him in the general population and pass out the knives!!!

Family members did not show up for his hearing, but Davis' mother told us by phone that, "he suffers from mental health issues."

Dr. Allen Battle is a psychologist with the UT Medical Group. He says, "seeking a baby is extremely rare." He says, "so many of the patients have been exposed to this behavior themselves, when they were kids in their formative stages."

Police were told about the attack after the newborn girl was taken to Forrest City Medical Center. Reports indicate Davis rode with the family to the hospital where she was treated for rape and a fractured skull. The little girl's injuries were so bad she was transferred to the Arkansas Children's Hospital in Little Rock, Arkansas. Davis' neighbors are appalled.

"It's scary to know if he'd do it to a child what do you think about someone he might see in the streets or something," worried Diane Mullins.

Davis doesn't live with the 15-year-old mother of his child. He listed a home on Wilson as his address. Investigators say Davis was visiting the child's mother when the reported attack occurred. Police say when the teenage mother finished showering for bed, she came out and there was blood on the child.

We didn't get a warm reception when we went to talk to Davis' family, "Just leave."

Criminal records show Davis has a misdemeanor theft charge, stemming from an August 2008 incident. Senior Shamaya Goss remembers Davis from his days at Forrest City High.

"He would like get in trouble a lot. I don't know what type, but he was a trouble maker."

No charges have been filed against the mother, but in child abuse cases all family members are considered suspects.

May I kill this one personally?

[Pinki]

OMG. That is just horrendous.

[catcher T]

that turns my stomach, I just don't get it.

[Donut Aficionado]

Happened here in Lincoln Park, MI too, not 8 days old but well less than a year. I lost track of the case and I'm not quite sure what happened to the sick bastard. I hope he got a a broomstick for a welcome present when he arrived in jail. Just f--ing sick.

Ducky, If the choice were mine I'd deliver him to you!

[Just KC]

UGH....just no words....

What in the fuck is wrong with some people?

[Kittylynn]

Ass wipe should have been nutered at birth. Ducky I'll help you and make it cruel and very unusual punishment.

[Ducky]

Ass wipe should have been nutered at birth. Ducky I'll help you and make it cruel and very unusual punishment.

I was thinking of skinning him alive, slowly.

I found out there was a similar case here a few years back, and the guy had polaroids of him doing it. They couldn't prove it, but they think the mother was the one who held the camera. Even the guy's former best friend wants him dead, and the wife has gone into hiding.

It's the season of the Hunting Ducky, I think.

I have a few bullets with his name engraved in them.

I like the Remington Accellerators No rifling on the slugs and good luck finding thr sabot from 150-200 yards out.

[CTR man]

Have him hanged, drawn and quartered. That should be enough.
