setting off a firestorm of national media coverage. a disturbing story out of texas. hillary and her mom hallie, now divorced from william, appear on the today show and other national media. william adams gives his side when questioned by a local reporter at the time. in my mind i haven t done anything wrong other than discipline after my child after she was caught stealing. i did lose my temper but i ve since apologized. it looks worse than it is. there is a story. it will come out in due time, okay? you do acknowledge that is you in the video. it is me. police investigate but the statute of limitations has run out and no charges are filed. adams is suspended with full pay from the bench pending the results of an investigation by the state commission on judicial conduct. in september 2012, the commission issues adams a public warning about his conduct.
in september 2012, the commission issues adams a public warning about his conduct. two months later adams is reinstated by the state supreme court. in march of 2014, he loses the re-election bid and declined our request for an interview or comment. hallie still struggles with her participation in the beating. i actually really did think about, you know, maybe it might just be better if i took my own life. i did consider that. i regret that i wasn t strong, and i regret that i didn t call the police. hillary says she still hopes someday to reconcile with her father but has no regrets about posting the video. a normal person would not hurt an animal like that. they wouldn t whip a puppy or anything. they wouldn t whip a cat that they find, so why would somebody do that to their own child?
