According to Global, “both the Crown and the defence agreed on the facts of the case, including that the woman’s mental state should prevent her from being convicted.” https://globalnews.ca/news/11428401/quebec-mom-abandoned-toddler-not-criminally-responsible/amp/ I hope her treatment is...

I think they mean figuratively - she probably wrote down or typed his name when they asked what attacked her. I can’t imagine how chilling and awful it would be for everyone in the room to expect her to tell them it was a bear or coyote or whatever and to get a teenage boy’s name instead.

I get that the YCJA is serving it’s purpose of ensuring that not everyone with access to a search engine or a newspaper knows his name, but in a town that small there’s no way every resident doesn’t know exactly who this kid is.

Ugh. Poor little thing will have no idea why this has happened to her, will probably want mom and be really confused/upset about her not being around.

Global News reporting today that his killers pleaded guilty to second degree murder and manslaughter, and their sentencing hearings are underway. There’s an agreed statement of facts on what happened: Heartbroken mother speaks at sentencing for trio who videoed fatal stabbing of Toronto man -...

Her dad’s Instagram story confirms she was found alive!

I know alarm fatigue is a real thing and you need to draw the line somewhere in regards to Amber Alerts, but this really seems like a situation where quick mass awareness might be really important if she’s alive and lost.

My first thought was wondering if it was a grandmother, perhaps with some sort of dementia issues that might help explain some of the vagueness here.

Her testimony is horrifying. IMO even if they’re not convicted, this behavior is so vile they’ll never play in the NHL again.

CBC’s live updates are really good: https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/livestory/canada-election-full-voting-results-expected-this-afternoon-with-key-races-still-too-close-to-call-9.6738893 I know things don’t move quickly in court and they were up front about the fact that this would take 8...
