According to TMZ, Stoudemire has two daughters that are 14 and 17 years old but it is unclear which one of the two was the alleged victim of Stoudemire’s assault. Either way, he is a pathetic excuse of a human-being for laying his hands on a woman, never mind his own daughter!

If I were the President of the University of Miami, I would revoke Stoudemire’s degree immediately. What kind of whack job beats up their own child? It’s truly sickening if you ask me.
Regardless of what his daughter said or did, Stoudemire handled it in the worst way possible and he should be depicted as the monster that he is. Hopefully karma bites him for this.
