On June 13, a deputy was dispatched to the sheriff’s office to take a report of possible child abuse. After speaking with two women, the deputy was shown a video that reportedly showed Preston Lee, 31, acting abusively toward a young child, according to the arrest affidavit.
Deputies say the video—recorded approximately two weeks earlier, according to one of the women—shows Lee yelling loudly and aggressively just inches from the child’s face. He continues to shout profanities before headbutting the child twice in the head, court documents state.
The video also reportedly shows Lee making threats toward the child and throwing a gaming controller at her. Lee was arrested on June 17 and charged with intentional child abuse resulting in no injury.
