In Dayton, Ohio, Greg Horn, the man who filmed himself brutally beating his daughters with a wire after discovering a twerking video they posted of themselves on Facebook, has been charged with child endangerment and corporal punishment.
The horrific video went viral after being posted on several websites including WorldStarHipHop and YouTube in which the girls, ages 12 and 14, are painfully screaming as their father strikes them.
The abuse happened at Horn’s home while the girls were visiting him. Reports state that their mother noticed the injuries and called the cops.
Sources say that the teens were beaten over a twerking video, but the sisters told authorities that they were beaten for sneaking out of the house. Whatever the case, Horn’s indictment comes during the first week of Child Abuse Awareness Month.

“The goal is to always keep kids safe,” said Kevin Lavoie from Montgomery County Children Services. “It may be nothing. But rather than analyze it, let our specialists figure it out and the best course of action.”
Horn’s court date is scheduled for April 16.
