Chicago police are investigating the posting to Facebook of a photo that appears to show a young girl with her hands and legs bound and her mouth covered with tape.
The picture, seen above, was recently posted to the Facebook page of Andre Curry, a 21-year-old Chicago man. The photo carried the notation, “This is wut happens wen my baby hits me back. ; ).â€
Hours after the photo was originally posted, a Facebook friend of Curry’s wrote, “U goin to jail.†Je’Vanna Cobbins, a second Facebook friend, wrote, “really??? Dre.â€
Cobbins, a Chicago resident, told TSG she believes Curry was just “playing around,†adding that, “I wouldn’t say it was child abuse.†Cobbins said that Curry–who once dated her sister–would “never do anything to harm anyone.†While noting that the image went “a bit too far,†Cobbins added that Curry was “being playful with his child. People play with their child differently.â€
The disturbing image–which began to circulate online over the past several days–apparently prompted calls to cops. A Chicago Police Department spokesman today told TSG that “detectives are looking into it.â€
Curry did not respond to a message sent via his Facebook page (where photos are only available to his friends).
In a phone interview, Curry’s grandmother said that he is father to a young daughter, but added that she knew nothing about the Facebook photo.
