Back in December, social media was shocked when Amar’e Stoudemire’s mugshot was posted following his arrest. The retired NBA player was arrested for allegedly slapping and punching his teen daughter following her graduation from the University of Miami.

Apparently the charges have been dropped…

CBS News reports:

The Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office on Tuesday confirmed to CBS Miami that misdemeanor battery charges have been dropped against Amar’e Stoudemire, the former NBA star who had been accused of punching and slapping one of his teen daughters last month.

In an emailed statement, the state attorney’s office said “the case was dropped due to the failure of the victim to cooperate in the prosecution of the criminal case.”

He also released a statement following his arrest.

“Over the last 24 hours, an incident at my family home led to my being charged with assaulting my daughter. It is an allegation based on a report that does not square with the facts. I am of the Jewish faith, today Jewish people all over the world celebrate Hanukkah and hear the story of how we fought wickedness. I believe that ‘whatever is hateful to you, do not do to others.’ As the investigation unfolds, the facts will show the allegations to be groundless as my daughter’s medical condition is not the result of being assaulted by a father who is nearly 7 feet tall and weighs 250 pounds. I could never see myself assaulting any person, especially my children. I respect, protect, and love my family, particularly my children. As a father, I ask for your grace as we secure our space and privacy.”

Amar’e Stoudemire, a former NBA star, has been charged with misdemeanor battery after allegedly punching one of his teenage daughters.

Speaking out on Instagram after being released from jail, Amar’e states he did not assault his daughter.

“As the investigation unfolds, the facts will show the allegations to be groundless as my daughter’s medical condition is not the result of being assaulted by a father who is nearly 7 feet tall and weighs 250 pounds,” Stoudemire said. “I could never see myself assaulting any person, especially my children. I respect, protect, and love my family, particularly my children.”

According to Miami-Dade County records, Stoudmire was arrested Sunday and released on a $1,500 bond with a no contact order. Stoudmire has two daughters, ages 17 and 14. Stoudemire allegedly hit one of his two teenage daughters during an argument at home.

ESPN notes, Stoudmire allegedly confronted his daughter about being disrespectful to their mother. The girl denied the claim, leading to Stoudmire saying, “You’re talking back again,” and punching her in the jaw, causing her to bleed.

The girl reportedly contacted their mother, who came and drove both girls and their brothers away from home. Stoudmire denied the incident on social media.

Over the weekend, former NBA star Amar’e Stoudemire was arrested and charged with misdemeanor battery and domestic violence. According to TMZ, this all stems from allegations that he struck his daughter multiple times inside his own home.

In the report, it states that Stoudemire allegedly hit his daughter after she gave him and her grandmother “attitude.” Stoudemire reportedly didn’t like how she was talking to him and hit her in the face. Furthermore, this reportedly caused the daughter to bleed. She then showed a picture of the injuries to her mother, who called the police.

Amar’e Stoudemire Responds

The mother of Stoudemire’s children picked them all up, including the daughter that was hurt. From there, police took Stoudemire away, however, he has since been released. Today, Stoudemire followed this story up by posting to his Instagram account. As you can see below, he is denying the accusations, noting that he would never do such a thing.

“As the investigation unfolds, the facts will show the allegations to be groundless as my daughter’s medical condition is not the result of being assaulted by a father who is nearly 7 feet tall and weighs 250 pounds,” Stoudemire said. “I could never see myself assaulting any person, especially my children. I respect, protect, and love my family, particularly my children.”

Overall, this is a very distressing story as you never want to see a child get hurt in any capacity. There are still a lot of facts that have yet to be revealed, and we imagine there will be some updates on this case soon.

Amar’e Stoudemire Arrested For Punching Daughter Hours After Receiving Master’s Degree

Authorities arrested Amar’e Stoudemire the night of December 17th for allegedly punching his daughter in the jaw and slapping her several times. Police charged the former NBA player with battery and stated that the incident came from an argument between Stoudemire’s daughter and her grandmother. Moreover, officers reported that his daughter was “giving attitude” when he struck her. Officers set his bail at $1,500. Also, this happened just hours after Stoudemire posted that he received his Master’s in Business Administration from the University of Miami. He celebrated his 40th birthday mere weeks ago.

According to police reports, the former basketball star’s daughter told them that her father struck her hard enough to draw blood. However, it’s unclear whether this was his 17-year-old daughter or his 14-year-old daughter. An officer working the case wrote “I observed blood stains on the victim’s sweater and sweatpants” on the arrest report.

“The mother of the victim, Alexis Welch,” they continued, “showed me the photo she received from her daughter, which shows the victim crying and blood running down her face.”

Welch told authorities that after her daughter sent her a picture, she rushed to get her and her two sons. Also, Stoudemire allegedly asked Welch to pick their daughter up because she was “being disrespectful.”

Reportedly, at around 8pm on Saturday (December 17th), the grandmother called Stoudemire’s daughter. She responded, “What?” Then, her father “rushed inside her room and asked her why she was giving attitude.” Later, his daughter said she wasn’t having a tone, and she said her father told her “You’re talking back again.” The daughter reported that the 40-year-old then struck her.

Meanwhile, the UM graduate said that his daughter called Welch to pick her up. She was sad “because she received a whooping from him for being disrespectful and a liar.” When authorities arrived on the scene, they saw bloodstains and arrested Stoudemire for punching his daughter. His bond is set at $1,500.

The last we heard of Amar’e Stoudemire, he was calling on Kyrie Irving to apologize for his antisemitic comments. Stay tuned to HNHH for the latest updates on this story.
