I was almost afraid to dig further. Having a daughter of my own, the details of that "alternative universe" just made me sick.
Which no one, apparently, considered cause for concern.
Not Ashley, who brought her 17-month-old baby to the party and is dating a guy whose criminal record includes 2005 charges of felony child abuse in Florida (Sprayberry eventually pleaded no contest to domestic battery).
And not Dani, who planned to return to Texas and the sordid orbit of a father who -- according to the Kaufman County DA -- has been arrested 17 times since 1987. In December 2006, the Morning News reported, Dani was with dear ol' dad when he was nailed during a traffic stop. Upon seeing the blue lights, she told police, her father asked her to hide his glass pipe and two rocks of crack cocaine.
