Tennessee Man Who Fathered 22 Children With 14 Women Sued For Back Child Support
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (NewsChannel 5) - It is one of Metro's most expensive child support cases and the father in question considers himself to be quite the ladies man.
"I was young and ambitious and I love women. You can't knock no man for loving women," said Orlando Shaw whose relationships have led to several children.
The 33-year-old Shaw admitted to fathering 22 kids by 14 different women. Those mothers -through Child Support Services - took Shaw to court for tens of thousands of dollars in unpaid child support over the years.
It is estimated the state pays more than $7,000 each month in assistance to help support all of Shaw's children.
"How do we apply our child support guidelines to this many children in this many households," said magistrate Scott Rosenberg.
Rosenburg said Shaw would have to take three or four full-time jobs to even come close to paying the child support he owes. Shaw said his prior criminal history makes it hard for him to find a job.
Shaw said he's proud of all his children.
