Toronto - A woman, accused of abandonning baby Angelica-Leslie back in January, was granted bail Saturday.

Her attorney calls it "a miracle." Her husband, however, must remain in custody.

The couple is facing a slew of charges after an eight-month-old baby girl was found in a cold stairwell of a mall parking lot on Finch Avenue and Leslie Street.

According to the Toronto Star, there are a number of conditions on her $10,000 bail release, including where she could live and that she must surrender her passport.

Both of the suspects will be in court on June 20.
