Beating Caught On Tape

Troubling video from California has a lot of people asking what would I do?

These new images seem to show a young boy being whipped by his stepfather all for dropping a baseball. Oscar Lopez grabbed a video camera and taped the whole thing. After watching blow after blow, Lopez had had enough and yells for it to stop.

Turns out that neighbor is Anthony Sanchez, 34, an elected official. After the video was posted online and sent to police, sanchez turned himself in on Friday posting a $100,000 bond.

Now the little boy’s grandparents are defending sanchez and his character saying, “we are a family that believes spanking a child serves its purpose well.”

Lopez says he has no regrets about taking action.
