AP James Chalkley is accused of a horrific catalogue of abuse on his young children in Dallas, USA
His two daughters, aged 10 and five, and three-year-old son have been into care following the horrific abuse allegations.
His partner Cheyanne, 22, the kids' stepmother, is also accused of regularly beating and spanking them.
Arrest warrants revealed the abuse came to light when teachers noticed bruising on his youngest daughter's arm in September.
She told child protection officials that her father used a dog's shock collar that left green marks on her skin.
