Beyond The Barrio: Nevada Man Robert Blue Forces Daughter To Lose Weight By Chaining Her To Bed

A father in Las Vegas, Nevada named Robert Blue decided he wanted to extend his membership to the Beautiful People Club to his daughter so, to help her lose weight, he chained the 15-year-old to her bed so that she couldn’t sneak food.

Clear away some of those titty-shaped beer steins from the kitchen cupboard and make way for a brand-new Father of the Year mug!

According to police, Blue had kept his daughter chained to her bed on-and-off over the course of two days. He also allegedly beat the teenager with a wooden stick and kicked her. Blue says he did this so that the girl would not sneak food out of the family kitchen and decided to padlock her to her bed after he found several containers of peas and corn in her bedroom.

Blue, apparently, wanted to bring his daughter’s weight down from 165 to 145-145 pounds because he claimed this was her fighting weight in mixed martial arts. When questioned by investigators, Blue stated he did not think he had committed a crime of any sort and was only acting in his daughter’s best interest. The wooden stick he used to beat her, he said, was a “training tool.”

Funny, because we hear they use something similar in prison.
