Wayne Burkhart Rapes Daughters and Forces them to Wear Electric Shock Dog Collar
In Tennessee, Wayne Burkhart Jr., 38, and his wife, Rebecca, 35, were arrested and are facing trial for child abuse. Wayne faces two counts of aggravated child assault and two counts of rape. Rebecca faces charges of aggravated child neglect and failing to report child abuse.
Burkhart’s 17-year-old daughter told police that she was sexually and physically abused by her father. She told them that her dad used electric shock dog collars on her and her 19-year-old sister, and that her stepmother, Rebecca, and her three younger siblings (ages 15, 13 and 11) knew about it.
That wasn’t all. She also said that her dad held a shotgun to her head and said that if she ever told anyone that he would kill the whole family.
The abuse and shock collars were intended to establish dominance, control and fear in the children. By the way, officials say that the the collars packed a substantial jolt and were meant to be used on large dogs.
So not only was this sick fuck torturing his kids, but he was raping his oldest two daughters. The 17-year-old daughter finally reported the abuse to a school resource officer when she was scared that her younger sister would also be raped by her dad.
All the Burkhart children are in foster care. Their father is being held on a $1 million bond. His wife was was released after she posted a $100,000 bond.
It’s amazing how child abuse victims finally get over their fear to help out younger siblings. She’s a brave girl for doing this. Let’s hope for her sake - and all the Burkhart kid’s well being - that both their parents are put away for a long, long time.
Thanks to M. Court for the tip!

OMG!!! This just brakes my heart! What kind of a father would rape and torture his own children?? And what kind of mother would let this happen? I can understand why the younger siblings didn’t tell, I’m sure they were afraid but that woman is a fu**ing coward and I hope they both get put away for life! This is horrible, absolutly HORRIBLE!! I hope those poor girls can recover from this! If kids can’t trust their parents, who can they trust? I am happy that they are no longer with those terrible people!

This guy, really a low point for fathers.
I saw this article a couple of days ago:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071117/ap_on_re_us/child_abuse;_ylt=AnUahFXBXKiez0fZsjnCaGd34T0D
The Burkharts did not seem to fit the pattern, but if you read thru this news report:
http://abcnews.go.com/US/story?id=3864646&page=1
way near the end it says that Mrs Burkhart was the kids step mother. AND Mr Burkhart did time in NY for doing the dog collar bit on one of his sons.

You’ve gotta be kidding me. I vote for death by castration and electrocution.

I think this woman bears responsibility for what happened too. Any adult who lives in a home with a child you know is being abused or neglected and doesn’t report it to the police or do anything about it needs to get themselves and the children out of situation. The saying “…it takes a villiage to raise a child…” means that as grown ups we know that children are helpless and it is our job as a society to protect them (even if it is from their parents) and nurture them.
Cosmo, I am in total agreement. I’d also like to add no pain killers during the castration to my vote.
