Quebec woman sentenced in infant beatings
Montreal -- A woman found guilty of severely beating two infants in her care was sentenced on yesterday to 4½ years in jail on aggravated-assault charges.
Cathy Matteau, who is in her mid-20s, has been in jail since Feb. 23 when she was found guilty of aggravated assault on the two girls in 2003. The infants were seven months and 10 months old.
The first infant suffered a skull fracture, six crushed vertebrae and symptoms of shaken baby syndrome. The baby is likely to suffer permanent damage from the assault at the at-home daycare Ms. Matteau operated.
The second baby suffered two cranial fractures but is likely to escape permanent damage.
Ms. Matteau's lawyer had argued that a maximum sentence of three years for the former child-care worker should be sufficient. CP

These laws of ours are fucken unbelievable. I'd bloody well beat her to a pulp for what she did to those children. She's getting off easy while those kids suffered at her hand. And they actually allowed her to run a daycare from her home. What the hell else did she do to the other kids. Oooooh these people make me sick!!!!!!
