America's tough justice for father of 23
Thursday 30 September 2010
Due to the popularity of our last story featuring a father who liked to sow his seed with several different ladies, we thought we’d tell you about the American equivalent and how very differently he is treated!
Irresponsible Brit, Keith Macdonald, AKA ,The Sunderland Shagger [pictured right], who fathered up to 15 children by 14 women, has been up-staged by his American counterpart, Howard Veal, the Daily Mail reports.
Veal has produced 23 children by 14 different women. However, that’s where the similarities end. Jobless Macdonald lives on benefits and is apparently constantly hounded for sex; while Veal is serving a four-year prison sentence for unpaid child support.
Forty-four-year-old Veal owes $533,000 - £337,00 - for his army of children. On being sentenced Michigan Judge Denis Lieber expressed his outrage at Veal’s behaviour calling him ‘the poster child for irresponsibility.’
He added that Veal was: “an insult to every responsible father who sacrifice to provide for their children.” He was so appalled he apparently exceed the sentencing guidelines. Not something often done in Britain.
The incensed judge continued his rant, saying: “Animals procreate, human beings are supposed to nurture their children. When you create a human being, I think you have a fundamental responsibility to provide for that child with necessities like food, clothing and shelter.”
He’s got a fair point we recon!
Back in Britain, Macdonald is not held accountable for missing child support payments. In fact, he receives incapacity benefit of £68.95 for a bad back and income support.
However, it seems his bad back hasn’t affected his performance with the ladies!
Veal has also lived mostly on benefits and was contributing a minimal amount of child support from this. It was recommended by Michigan’s assistant attorney general that Veal’s behaviour justified a jail sentence, as he was unlikely to ever to be able to substantially pay off any of his debt, especially as there was 15 cases to be held against him.

i cant read anynmore of these stories they make me so angry! as the judge says animals procurate, anyone can provide sperm and make a baby but it takes a real man to become a father.
its such an embarassment to our country we should take america's example and stop paying this dirty, riddled, lazy waste of ozygen to produce more lives! i didnt even think about the thing with his back if he has a back bad enough to not be able to work then it must effect his ability to have sex surely??!! benefits office take note!!!!!!!!!!!

Me neither, but thinking about it that's probably why he's got a bad back! Think America's got this one right. Something
should be done to punish him for all of us paying for his many kids. Also if he was is jail he wouldn't be able to make
any more. Any shagging done in that place will NOT procurate. Won't do a lot for his bad back though..
