A mother who killed her eight-week-old twin daughter and left the other with permanent brain damage will not be stripped of her working with children permit.
Tina Terlato pleaded guilty to infanticide after baby Amanda died with a fractured skull and brain bleeds at their Melbourne home in April 2012, while the youngster s sister Alicia was injured so badly she has lifelong disabilities.
In May it was revealed Terlato, a diehard Essendon Football Club supporter, obtained a permit to make AFL banners alongside kids.
Despite calls by family members and the state opposition to review the permit, Attorney-General Jaclyn Symes said she couldn t reverse the decision unless Terlato committed another crime.
A mother who viciously attacked her eight-week-old daughters, leaving one dead and the other with permanent brain damage, has enjoyed a Mother s Day celebration with her family.
Tina Terlato killed newborn Amanda and assaulted the youngster s twin sister Alicia so brutally in their suburban Melbourne home on Anzac Day in 2012 that she now has lifelong disabilities.
She pleaded guilty to the downgraded charge of infanticide rather than murder, meaning she never spent a day behind bars, and has since been approved to work with children in a new role with the Essendon cheer club designing AFL banners.
The decision, which came almost exactly nine years to the day of the anniversary of the senseless killing, left the father of her three children Paul Terlato disgusted .
