Boxer mum, 28, dubbed 'The Secret Assassin' who battered schoolgirl, 11, leaving her covered in blood fined just £120

Kiesha Schofield was attacked by Jade Binch, 28, following a row with her daughter, who was a school friend.

Kiesha’s mum Tiffany, 33, reassured her daughter that Binch would be jailed for the attack, which she said left her with a broken nose, bruising and a bloodshot eye.

But despite being convicted of assault by beating in September last year, Binch was only given a six-month community order and a £120 fine.

Tiffany said Binch had “got away” with the attack that had left her daughter afraid to leave the house.

The 33-year-old, from Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire, said: “Kiesha had blood all over her face and was bruised on her head and body.

"Jade fractured Kiesha's nose, she had a bruised and blood shot eye which took a long time to heal.

"She had scratches over her body and bruises on her back and arms where she had been kicked.

"I was livid. I wanted to do the same to her that she'd done to Kiesha but common sense kicked in.

"I knew I needed to show Kiesha that you follow the right processes. I knew I couldn't retaliate.

"I kept saying to her 'she'll definitely get prison time for this'. When she was given the fine and no jail sentence, I couldn't believe it.

"The judge who also watched the CCTV footage in court gave her a fine. How is that justice for attacking a minor?"

Videos on Facebook show Binch sparring in a boxing ring and she was dubbed “the Secret Assassin” by her coach.

Kiesha and Binch’s daughter had been best pals before falling out in March 2017.

Tiffany said: “They’d been at my house for dinner before the attack happened. There was a big group of them out and Jade's daughter had fallen out with her boyfriend.

"Kiesha went over to tell him everything would be alright and Jade's daughter just said 'I'm going to tell my mum.'

"Kiesha rang me panicking saying her friend's mum was 'coming down to get her'. I just reassured her, thinking 'what mum was going to do anything to a child?'

"The rest of the group started walking to the shop and Jade then pulled up and got out of the car and assaulted her."


As Keisha lay injured on the pavement, passers-by came to her help and called the emergency services. She was then taken to hospital.

Tiffany, a cleaning supervisor, said her daughter was now scared to leave the house.

She said: “There's a shop at the top of the road and she won't go without her brother.

"She's too scared to walk to school because there have been several times when Jade has shouted out of the car window at her.

"Kiesha does nothing and has got a very negative outlook on life.

"A year and half later, my daughter is still seeing a counsellor, still has flashbacks of that awful night.”

Binch said: “The information [Tiffany] is stating isn’t true. I was convicted of assault by beating which can mean as much as a finger being put on somebody else.

"I haven't beat her daughter – the information is incorrect.

"People can think what they like. I know what's what. She can make whatever allegations that she likes."

A spokesman for the Crown Prosecution Service said: “Jade Binch pleaded guilty to one charge of assault by beating and was sentenced on 28 September [2017] at Mansfield Magistrates’ Court to a Community Order for 6 months and participate in rehabilitation activities for 10 days.

"She was also ordered to pay a fine of £120, costs to the CPS of £250 and a surcharge to Government of £100."
