Mum who stood back and watched as her two-year-old daughter was bashed to death by her boyfriend walks FREE from jail

A mother who sat and watched as her boyfriend whipped, tortured and ultimately killed her two-year-old daughter has walked free from jail.

Donna Deaves was released from Silverwater Prison at 7am on Saturday after serving nine years in prison for failing stop her evil partner's sickening abuse. 

Two-year-old Tanilla Warrick-Deaves was beaten to death by Warren James Ross, 30, in 2011 on the Central Coast of New South Wales after he became frustrated that the little girl was not toilet-trained.

Before her death Family and Community Services received 30 reports regarding concerns for Tanilla's safety. 

Donna Deaves pleaded guilty to manslaughter and was sentenced to 12 years in jail with a non parole period of nine years (pictured, after her trial in 2013)

Tanilla Warrick-Deaves was left to die over two days in her pram with severe head injuries inside her Watanobbi home on the NSW Central Coast in August, 2011

Deaves pleaded guilty to manslaughter and was sentenced to a maximum of 12 years behind bars.

Justice Stephen Rothman accepted that Deaves felt 'helpless' but added she 'should have had the courage to take her child to hospital', the Daily Telegraph reported.

Following the horrific attack, Deaves admitted to leaving her the toddler in her pram for two days before eventually calling Triple-0 in the early hours of August 27.

But by that time it was already to late and baby Tanilla soon succumb to her injuries. 

Although Justice Rothman ruled Deaves suffered from a 'a personality disorder' and did not participate in any of the abuse herself, he said it did not abdicate her responsibility as a mother to protect her child. 

Ross was sentenced to a 40-year prison sentence for the child's gruesome murder.

Tanilla's stepmother Brooke Bowen told A Current Affair Deaves didn't deserve to be freed from jail for what she had done.

'Tanilla was made to run laps of the lounge room ... she was whipped. Her mother sat there and watched her take her last breath. She don't deserve to get out. Tanilla is never coming home, ever, why should she get to come home?' she said. 

The violence escalated with Ross striking the toddler repeatedly, banging her head on a glass shower screen and a cupboard door. 

The beatings were so severe that she lay unconscious in a pram for two days until she eventually stopped breathing. 

Miss Bowen said Deaves sat and watched as her daughter took her last breath and if she had the chance she would tell the parole board to consider that.

'She was just so tiny and full of life. What she would have went through those last couple of days of her life hoping that her mum would save her or someone would come along and save her, but they didn't,' she said. 

In a new twist to the horrific story Ross has now been charged with allegedly assaulting two other young girls, known to Tanilla, in the lead up to her death.   

Psychologist Ian Wallace told the program it was about time kids were taken more seriously when it came to reports of abuse and similar claims. 

'They often have a belief that this is just what happens to kids and that means they're much less likely to report it,' he said.
