Texas mom used stun gun on 14-year-old son as discipline: police
Kimira Hysaw, 32, of Pflugerville, faces an injury-to-a-child charge after authorities say she ‘tased’ her son multiple times last week. Hysaw reportedly called the boy a ‘handful.’
A ticked-off Texas mom pulled a pink stun gun out of her purse and used it to punish her 14-year-old son, whom she described as a “handful,” according to police.
Kimira Hysaw of Pflugerville was arrested after a teacher learned about last week’s discipline and police said they later observed two burn marks on the teen’s upper arm and one on his back, the Austin American-Statesman reported Wednesday.
An affidavit claims the 32-year-old mom had “tased” her son four times.

“I threaten him with it,” Hysaw told police, according to the affidavit. He “is a handful. … I don’t even know where my child is half the time.”
