‘I’m not going to jail… what’s your next move?’ Smug texts from a mother who walked free after bashing her eight-month-old girl with cooking spoon – as dad reveals toddler will need YEARS of therapy
Lorien Norman pleaded guilty to beating her baby daughter with a slotted spoon
Evie McMahon was left with severe bruising and injuries to her face and cheeks
Norman, 26, walked away with just a suspended sentence and a $500 fine
Now she has gloated to her former partner about getting away without jail time
Evie’s dad Shane McMahon said his daughter would need ongoing mental help
A mother who bashed her toddler so badly she had to be hospitalised has boasted about not being jailed and ‘surviving’ a storm of social media outrage against her.
Lorien Norman was last week given a suspended jail sentence for a horrific attack in which she abused her eight-month-old daughter Evie with a kitchen serving spoon.
In a text message sent by Norman to her former partner Shane McMahon after being sentenced, she said: ‘So, I’m not going to jail… even with everyone against me on social media I still made it’.
The adorable toddler was left with sickening bruises to her eyes, nose and cheeks at the hands of her mum, who after the incident threatened to throw her off a balcony.
Despite the shocking nature of the attack an Adelaide District Court judge sentenced the 26-year-old mother to only a two-year good behaviour bond and a $500 fine.
And after outrage at the soft sentencing ensued when photos of Evie’s injuries were uploaded to Facebook over the weekend, her doting father Mr McMahon told Daily Mail Australia the abuse would cause long-term issues for his ‘cheeky little monkey’

Mr McMahon said despite his daughter’s physical health being back to normal, it was likely to be years before she overcame the mental scars she suffered in the attack.
‘Mentally she hasn’t been cleared, because it’s too early in a babies life to determine what the exact mental repercussions will be,’ he told Daily Mail Australia.
‘She’s going to have to have extensive mental rehabilitation down the track, but the concern is that what upsets her most is that she doesn’t like anything near her face.
‘My other daughter has a soft ball and if it goes anywhere near her or near her face she cowers, so she knows what she’s been through and she’s well aware that she’s been hurt.’
Despite being unable to have a haircut because of her fear of anything touching the area where she was bashed, Evie is back on track physically according to her dad.
‘She’s fantastic. It’s 12 months on and she’s been given the all clear physically by the paediatricians, so there’s no long term affect on the physical structure of her bones.’
‘Before she got here she was quite timid, shy and scared, but she’s come into her own little world – she runs the place now.
‘She’s just a cheeky little monkey running around without her nappy, climbing up on the bench when she’s not supposed to, drawing on the walls – she’s a beautiful girl.’

Norman was allowed to walk free on a two year good behaviour bond following her sentencing last week
Evie’s mother walked free from court last week with a good behaviour bond after a judge found the baby’s injuries were ‘likely to resolve’.
Despite the offence carries a maximum sentence of 13 years Norman did not spend a day behind bars, instead given the bond and ordered to pay $500.
Gloating about her escape in the hours after facing the District Court, Norman sent a series of messages to her former partner.
‘So I’m not going to jail. What’s your next move?’
‘I’ll send you photos in October. Cute family photos of myself, Indi, Evie, my sister, her partner and my nephew, Hudson.
‘Even with everyone on social media against me, I still made it. And I’ll be having part custody within a year.
Initially her mother attempted to claim the youngster had become bruised following a fall in a playground, before later pleading guilty aggravated assault causing harm.
Speaking to Daily Mail Australia on Thursday, Mr McMahon said he was ‘speechless’ at the soft sentence handed down.
‘I’m disgusted – I’m truly speechless. Where is Evie’s justice?’ he told Daily Mail Australia.
‘I’ve raised both these girls [Evie and India, the second child he had with Norman] single handedly, and she gets 10 months of a sentence that carries a maximum of 13 years!
<THIS BITCH IS 100% PURE UNCUT EVIL!
What the fuck even
The U.S. is so messed up when it comes to child custody. Equality where?
This is horrible. The demon should never see her child again.
Shit like this is why fathers rights is so important.
Female privilege. We all know that if the situation was reversed the father would be spending time behind bars.
