Christie Lee Kennedy, 38, of Queensland, Australia, will serve no jail time after running over her cheating husband and his mistress in her car.
Kennedy tracked him using the Find My Phone app installed on his phone after he’d told her he’d gone to pick up their children from daycare.

Kennedy told the jury she saw her husband, David Larkin, and his mistress Zowie Noring kissing in the Brisbane suburb of Wavell Heights in March 2021. She accelerated towards them before applying her brakes and struck the pair in her SUV, sending them flying onto the street.
Kennedy then got out of her car and punched Noring in the face, calling her a “fat moll” and a “slut” before returning to the car and driving up the street, where she parked and returned to her husband.
Neighbor and Wavell Heights resident “Scummy” told Nine News he heard the collision inside his home.
“I heard the thud from inside, and we had the TV cranked up, and you could hear ‘bang,’” he said.
“I picked up my phone, called the ambos, and my boy chased that girl down the road.”
Kennedy had previously pleaded guilty to common assault at the start of her trial last year after she punched Noring in the face.
“She drove on the wrong side of the road, she did not swerve or reposition the vehicle, she drove on the wrong side of the road for about 45 meters,” the Crown prosecutor said.
“Her vehicle struck both of them with the front side of the car. Larkin was thrown into the air and onto the road. Noring was also thrown onto the road. After hitting Noring, [Kennedy] immediately attacked her, which shows a lack of remorse for her actions at the time by punching a person who was lying on the ground after being hit.”

The Crown argued that Kennedy should be jailed and sentenced to three years.
Kennedy’s defense barrister, Penny White, told the court her client had not intended to hit the pair with her car but instead “get there quickly” when she chose to accelerate.
Kennedy previously pleaded guilty to common assault at the start of her trial last year after punching Noring in the face.
“Her vehicle struck both of them with the front side of the car. Larkin was thrown into the air and onto the road. Noring was also thrown onto the road…,” the Crown prosecutor said.
“She wanted to get to them and confront them about what was going on,” White said.
“The only reason this happened was because her husband was kissing someone else, and she wasn’t aware of it.”
White said her client should receive a probation order at sentencing.
“A sentence of actual imprisonment is not within range for this offending in circumstances that there’s no deliberate intention to hit them, and she used her brakes to stop,” White said.

Judge Paul Smith last month sentenced Kennedy to nine months in jail for the two offenses, which were suspended.
“I think it would be fair to conclude that you would be quite shocked about what you saw there despite what suspicions you had prior,” Judge Smith said.
“You’re obviously an excellent employee and a very good mother, and it’s a real shame you committed this offense, but I do form a firm view that this offending is out of character, and it’s unlikely you’ll re-offend with anything like this.”
Kennedy was ordered to pay $5,000 [Australian, USD 3,310] each in compensation to her ex-husband and Noring. She was given two weeks to pay $10,000 [USD 6,620] or face a possible one month in jail. Kennedy was disqualified from driving for nine months.
