Man Earning Minimum Wage Who Fathered 30 Children Is Asking For Government Help with His Child Support Payments

Hatchet struggles to make ends meet while paying child support on his 30 children

 

 

    Desmond Hatchet, a 33-year-old Tennessee Man has fathered 30 children with 11 women.

    The problem comes in with his paycheck. You see, Hatchet earns minimum wage and before he even sees a penny from his paycheck; half of it goes to the state to be divided up for child support. Though the equation used for dividing up the child support is at this time unclear, what is know is that some of his dependents only receive a little over $1 per month. 

    Now, Hatchet has requested help from the state to make his support payments.

    Back in May or 2009, when he landed in court for non-payment of child support for his 21 children, he promised the judge he was going to stop there. 

 

Hatchet was interviewed by a local news channel after appearing in court for non payment of child support back in 2009.
