On November 17th, Metro Nashville Police officers were dispatched to 1013 Sharpe Avenue in reference to a domestic assault called in by Emily Fauor. She told officers that she was Facetimed by her 13-year-old daughters who told her their father, Robert Eskew, had assaulted them. When officers arrived, they made contact with the juvenile victims. The girls stated Eskew got upset with them when they did not follow his school work rules.
They told officers that Eskew threw a shoe at one of them, dragged her by the hair, then covered her nose and mouth which caused breathing to be difficult.

Officers took photos of the injuries. Eskew denied hitting the girls.
