Attention Moms: Don't Get Caught Cheering On Your Kid In A YouTube Video Fight

A Florida mother who stood on the sidelines cheering on her daughter during a planned high school fight between the teen and another girl was arrested today for child abuse.

According to a Manatee County Sheriff’s Office affidavit, April Newcomb, 39, can be seen on multiple YouTube videos “encouraging” her daughter “to physically fight” with the other girl. The videos, one of which can be viewed below, were filmed by attendees of the fight, which occurred in a vacant field near Palmetto High School.

As seen in this still, it appears most teens present came prepared to record the fisticuffs. 

When questioned by a cop, Newcomb, pictured in the mug shot at right, claimed that she only attended the bout between the two 16-year-old combatants in order “to make sure nothing got out of hand.” She also wanted to look out for her daughter’s health since the teen had “sustained a skull fracture from a previous incident approximately two years ago.”

"Of course we were both wrong and I understand that," Newcomb said, adding, "I understand where ya’ll are coming from.”  

As her daughter is being throttled by a larger girl, Newcomb can be heard at one point yelling to her child, “Don’t fucking stop.” Later in the video, apparently serving as her offspring’s corner man, Newcomb advises, “Punch her in the fucking body.”

Newcomb can also be seen at the clip’s outset, arriving with her daughter’s entourage as the teen's opponent bounced about in preparation for the fight.

Highclass2, thanks for sticking up for us Floridians. Im commenting because i was told the same thing you were, to come check out the bullshiat comments. These people have nothing better to do. Im close friends with one of these girlsin the video and neither one of them are anywhere near WHITE TRASH! surree theres white trash in FLORIDA but not everyone that lives in FL is white trash, but its none of the kids in this video. having trucks dont make you redneck or white trash. The sad thing is how much you sorry ass people talk your shiat about these kids being dumbass white trash going no where in life. The funny thing is that alot of those kids are really really smart and are going to college or have scholarships waiting for them when there done with high school. So yall really need to get another outlook on FL and the people in it... and all the political comments..REALLY STFU political shiat has nothing to do with this fight. these sorry ass bitches in this county have nothing better to do than get involved with something that was little, and blowin it wayywayyyy out of proportion til it goes national. BTW TO ALL YOU WHO FEEL THAT YOU ARE MORE UPPER CLASS THAN US, GUESS WHAT YOU JUST DOWN GRADED YOURSELVES TO OUR LEVEL BY TALKIN YOUR shiat. so get off your *** computer and worry about your own problems and not ours. THANKS! From: THE LOWER CLASS FLORIDA BOY 46

FlaBoy46, You have the grammar of a third grader and, I'd imagine, less intelligence than one. Florida has the highest per-capita rate of white trash than any other state in the Union.

FIRST OFF, it takes White trash to know white trash, Only someone who is white trash would call another human white trash because they only try to better themselves, What you dont know if things like this happen everyday, im sure your kids are out doing these sames thing,and if they aren't doing this then they're solving there problems by doing drugs or other illegal things. I like how all of you people can sit here and judge someone when im sure you have your own problems at home and if you dont its because your wasting your time commenting on everything you see, im only commenting because someone told me to come on this site and read all the pathetic comments you no life people have, Go worry about your own children or loved ones before you sit on the computer and worry about someone elses because truthfully all the political comments really? your a laughing stock of the whole website if you havent noticed.. Go get lives..
