As the assault progressed, the teen managed to escape from her tormentors, but her father chased her down and dragged her back into the garage. At one point, her father is seen throwing Trinity on the floor and then restraining her by sitting on her chest.

In a later post, her father was completely unrepentant when he defended his right to discipline his daughter for running away and lying. He accused her of going to a stranger’s house and smoking weed.

He asserted that it was better for him to discipline Trinity than for her to end up being beaten and possibly raped by the person or persons she had visited earlier.

Hoping to get help for the young girl, many social media users as well as celebrities like Lil Scrappy, shared the troubling video.
