A WOMAN who attacked another woman with a jug at a Bournemouth lapdancing club has been spared jail.

Former exotic dancers Yvonne McDermid, 36, and Cheryl Hanrahan became embroiled in a fight.

This came after McDermid called the 45-year-old a ‘glass-eyed prostitute’.

She caused the victim actual bodily harm when she used a plastic jug to strike her on the side of the face.

The incident happened during a night out at the Wiggle Gentlemen’s Club in Old Christchurch Road.

They had a bitter falling out before they bumped into each other on a night out in August 2018.

Miss Hanrahan, who wears a glass eye from a childhood accident, sat down near to McDermid after coming off the dance floor at Wiggle.

The defendant told her to ‘**** off’ before the ugly brawl erupted.

Miss Hanrahan, who now works as a laser therapist, suffered a facial injury that has left her scarred for life.

McDermid denied the charge of ABH but was found guilty following a trial.

Appearing at Bournemouth Crown Court, Judge Robert Pawson slammed her behaviour as “disgraceful” and told her she had not shown a “shred of remorse” and had seen herself as the victim.

As McDermid shook her head in the dock, the judge told her she was lucky to avoid being sent straight to prison.

He only agreed to suspend her sentence so that she can continue to care for her son, who has autism.

Judge Pawson said: “I don’t detect in you a shred of remorse.

“I don’t think for one moment that you are really genuinely sorry for what happened.

“My judgement from the way you conducted yourself at trial is that you see yourself as a bit of a victim - it’s all a bit unfair.

“It is not unfair for a moment. You have behaved disgracefully.

“My sense from you is that you really couldn’t care less about the fact you scarred another woman’s face.”

Robert Griffiths, mitigating, had urged the judge to consider the impact that jailing McDermid would have on her son.

He said: “It is not a get out of jail free card having children but the difficulty here is that her son has autism.

“Routine is very important for him.”

McDermid, from Bournemouth, was sentenced to 14 months in prison, suspended for two years.

She was also placed under a seven-month curfew meaning she will not be allowed to leave her home between 8pm and 6am.

Judge Pawson added: “If you re-offend in the next two years your sentence will be activated.

“It won’t be any good coming back then and saying the impact on my son will be X, Y and Z. 3?

“You have a chance. If it has an adverse affect on your son in the future, it will be entirely at your door.”
