A SADISTIC woman who jumped on a little boy's stomach with both feet after losing her patience with him has been jailed for seven years.

The savage assault led to the eight-year-old being rushed to hospital with a perforated bowel, Guildford Crown Court heard. Nicola Tedder, 32, from Haslemere, inflicted a catalogue of cruelties on the child she was responsible for looking after.

They included plunging her fingers into his eyes causing ulceration and abrasions, burning his feet on a piping hot radiator, and clasping her hands around his throat pushing him under his bathwater

She also hit him on the head with kitchen untensils and rubbed face in his own excrement if he soiled himself.

Tedder, of High Lane, Haslemere, was found guilty of causing grievous bodily harm with intent.

She was also convicted of four offences of assault causing actual bodily harm and one of child cruelty after a five-week trial.
