Blinston’s daughter reportedly confided to her therapist Tuesday that the Florida tattoo artist choked her twice after an argument. A police report followed the claim.

Blinston reportedly held his daughter’s neck leaving her incapable of breathing for about 10 seconds, according to the police report. After Blinston released her, his daughter said: “You just choked me, after everything that’s gone on the past two days, you’re choking me!”

Blinston reportedly became angry again and strangled her a second time leaving her unable to breathe for about 7 seconds. Blinston reportedly called the young girl a “mental skank” and threatened there “would be hell to pay” if she informed anyone about the incident.
