Man gets 4 years in jail for beating girlfriend with Shake Weight

TIPPECANOE COUNTY, Ind. (WLFI) - A man received four years behind bars and two on probation for beating his girlfriend with a Shake Weight workout device in 2011.

Tippecanoe County Superior Court 1 found 20-year-old Jonathan T. Noe guilty of battery with a deadly weapon (class C felony) and invasion of privacy (class A misdemeanor).

He was sentenced Monday to six years, two of which will be probation.

Court documents said Noe knowingly and intentionally violated a protective order to keep him from abusing, harassing, or disturbing the peace of the victim, his girlfriend. The order was filed in Porter County in June 2011.

The victim told police Noe, her boyfriend, was unhappy with her and began kicking her and beating her until she was knocked unconscious after he attended a party in Willowbrook Apartments in West Lafayette.

When police arrived at the apartment complex, they said the woman's eyes were swollen shut and her mouth was so swollen she could hardly speak. Police noted in court documents four of her teeth were knocked loose and pushed back toward her throat.

Medical records in the court documents reveal the victim suffered a hematoma to her head, a fracture to her right eye socket, a broken nose, a blowout fracture on her face, a concussion and multiple bruises.
