Ok minions. It’s been a few weeks since I’ve been able to post. The reason being that I have been overwhelmed at my job preventing me from putting on the Ed Gruberman game face and getting stuff up. So let’s start again with a bang! Or should I say… SNAP… CRACK… WOOSH!

FORT WORTH — When the Arlington father caught his teenage stepson sexually assaulting his 8-year-old daughter late Jan. 2, investigators say the 32-year-old man did the right thing — he called police.

The 18-year-old was arrested by Arlington police on suspicion of aggravated sexual assault. The girl was taken to the hospital, where an examination revealed she’d been raped anally. And the father issued a stern warning to his wife.

“He didn’t want anybody to help (the teen),” said Sgt. Cheryl Johnson, supervisor of the Fort Worth sex crimes unit, adding that the man also stated that he would hurt his stepson.

But unbeknownst to the father, police say, the man’s wife posted bond for her son’s release from the Arlington jail. When the teen called home for a ride on the early afternoon of Jan. 3, it was his stepfather who answered the phone and arrived at the jail to pick up the teen.

But the pair didn’t go home, investigators say.
