Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small Sr. and his wife were caught on video beating daughter after they were secretly recorded on FaceTime by boyfriend they 'disapproved of', affidavit claims

Court documents revealed Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small Sr. and his wife were recorded abusing their daughter by her boyfriend, as the couple faces charges for endangering the welfare of their child.

The Democrat, 50, and his wife La'Quetta Small, the superintendent of the Atlantic City Public School System, are accused of abusing their 16-year-old daughter on numerous occasions after she refused to stop seeing a boy she was dating.

According to charging documents obtained by DailyMail.com, they carried out a barrage of abuse from December 2023 to January 2024, including beating her unconscious with a broom, threatening to 'earth slam' her down stairs, striking her with a belt and punching her in the mouth.

The Smalls were charged two weeks after the mayor dragged his daughter in front of cameras to deny rumors about the crimes, including that he beat her so savagely she miscarried.

Shocking new details revealed in the court documents allege the couple was secretly recorded abusing their teenage daughter by the boyfriend they disapproved of.

'[Her boyfriend] stated during the week of December 10, 2023, he witnessed over the video chat on different occasions how her father screamed at her and was physically abusive specifically choking her. He described J.S.'s clothing being ripped, and her body bruised after the abuse incidents,' said the affidavit.

Video obtained by detectives from the boyfriends iPad captured an incident on January 3 where Marty told his daughter 'I'm gonna hurt you.'

The 16-year-old had asked her father to move out of the way so she could go to school which Marty responded, 'Sit down. I'll smack the weave out ya head.'

All I see are pictures of a loving family...none of the “alleged” abuse. But, you know what they say...

“Spare the choking, spoil the child.”

Hmmm. Was the boyfriend white? That would be the only scenario to elicit such a response.

No pictures needed.

“I had a teacher back in HS tell us once that if parents pretended to “Like” the boy their teen daughter was dating, no matter how much they hate they guy, odds are the girl would dump him in a week. “

This is the problem with the biased crap.

I have a friend in Chicago, wife unf passed away young.

He is left on his own raising two daughters. He works in HVAC and has endless tales. He spouts off biased crap frequently.

The daughter’s boyfriends are named Jamaal and Deshaun.

Seriously, all the website showed was photos of the family in their ritzy clothes. I have no doubt the abuse took place. I feel for the kid. Beating her unconscious with a broomstick? Mom and dad need some serious jail time.

Should have beat up the boyfriend instead.

“ Should have beat up the boyfriend instead.”
*********************************

It’s interesting that there is no mention of actual videos of physical abuse of the daughter. I suspect that the boyfriend is a real piece of work. I wouldn’t be too quick to judge the parents trying to raise a difficult daughter in a difficult environment.

Could we just skip the trial and start executing these scumbags?

This is just another day in the hood. The fact that it is Jersey and parents who happen to be corrupt politicians and public employees make this the most NJ thing ever.

Well, you can’t beat them, and you can’t beat them with brooms and belts, etc. That’s illegal regardless of the provocation.
