Cops in Oklahoma arrested a father and his girlfriend after they allegedly found his 15-year-old daughter tied up with a ratchet strap to a tree in the backyard of a home between a chicken coop and shed.

Johnny James, 40, is in jail on a charge of aggravated child abuse and neglect while Kayla Sharee Clark, 42, is facing an enabling child neglect charge. On July 28, deputies from the Washington County Sheriff’s Office responded to a home in Vera, a small town in northeast Oklahoma about 25 miles north of Tulsa, for a child abuse complaint, according to a probable cause arrest affidavit obtained by Law&Crime.
