R. v. L.B.
L.B. was charged with two counts of first degree murder arising out of separate incidents resulting in the deaths of two of her infant children. After a trial in the Superior Court of Justice, she was acquitted of the two charges but convicted of infanticide in relation to the death of each child. This appeal examines the infanticide provisions of the Criminal Code and considers the nature, scope and application of those provisions in cases of homicide.
The judgment of the court will be released at 10:00 am, Wednesday March 2, 2011 and will be posted on the court's website at that time.
