A little six-year-old child saved her mother's life after she reported the abuse she faces at the hands of her husband to a teacher. "My Daddy is hurting my Mummy," she told the teacher. Her mother Jodie Keegans endured great suffering at the hands of her abusive, controlling husband Scott for over three years. The judge hearing the case described it as one of the most 'satanic' cases he had ever seen.

Scott Keegans was sent to jail for 18 years last month after Jodie's six-year-old daughter told her teacher about the abuse that was taking place at home. As reported by DailyMail, the girl told the teacher how her mother "says she loves him, but he keeps hurting her".
