"Oklahoma State Representative Ty Burns, R-Morrison, pleaded guilty to domestic assault after court documents revealed he tried to gouge out his wife’s eyes and later forced a vehicle carrying his daughter and another relative into a ditch.
Despite the plea, Burns remains in office, stepping down only from a committee chair assignment.
.....
His wife told the relative to leave and take the children. When the relative brought the 16-year-old daughter outside to her van, the documents say Burns began shaking and pushing the vehicle, yelling, “Get the **** out of here. I hate you. You are the cause of all these problems.”
Burns followed the van in his truck, forcing the vehicle into a ditch and injuring his daughter and the relative. His daughter texted another sibling a video, writing, “Dad’s ***ing crazy he just ran us off the road.”

Court records also describe a November incident when Burns’ wife said he “forcefully tried to gouge her eye out with his finger,” breaking a blood vessel after he became angry she made plans with friends."....(more)
