A Chicago mother wants the public to know that a photo showing her daughter bound with painters tape was meant as a lighthearted joke and that the girl’s father is not the monster many are calling him.

“It’s just not what it’s supposed to be,” Yesmin Doss said through tears Wednesday afternoon. “He’s been called a monster and stuff and Dre’s just a great guy. He’s just a great, a great father.”
