Story here. Excerpt:

'A English teen mother who left her baby with irreparable brain damage after repeated beatings prompted a judge to storm out of his courtroom in anger.

Judge Anthony Russell had to step out of Preston Crown Court for 15 minutes so he would not jail Kayleigh Searle, 19, out of rage, the Daily Mail reports.

Searle has been jailed for eight years after a series of violent beatings of her three-month-old son Thomas left him blind, severely disabled and in considerable pain.
...
"It is almost unimaginable that a mother could have inflicted such injuries on her own child, and furthermore shown no remorse at all," he said.

"Your conduct throughout the inquiry and the case have shown you to be completely heartless — you appear to lack even the basic humanity."'

Eight F'ing years for what this monster did?
If her boyfriend did this to her he would get life without parole and justly so.

Eight damned years maybe. Bet she gets out sooner or maybe the sentence will be overturned like Andrea Yates sentence was.

Her boyfriend got 3 years just for not stopping it. I agree, 8 years is nothing

'"It is almost unimaginable that a mother could have inflicted such injuries on her own child, and furthermore shown no remorse at all," he said.'

I guess he's unaware of the fact that in every murder, the mother is the likeliest one to have done it (~40-50% of the time). Wait a second, I thought women only get violent in self defense? Was her defenseless child trying to assault her? Feminists are so full of shit, it's pathetic.
