  1. She threw boiling water on a kid because she thought he had been knocking on her door for a few months, she admitted it, and she was still released on a promise to appear. Tabarnak doesn’t cover this one. That’s fucked up.

    If someone did that to my kid, I would probably be the one in jail after they ended up being thrown into traffic under questionable circumstances.

    I don’t care if she’s mental, inflicting that kind of pain on an innocent child is unspeakably evil, how in God’s name was she released.

    I wouldn’t be able to control my rage if someone did that to one of my kids. I would be the one in jail and she’d be in the morgue.

  4. > She was released the same day on a promise to appear and under conditions

    I’m sure despite being obviously mentally unstable and dangerous, her word is good.

    If this woman gets to a general population in any jail/prison. It’s not going to be good for her, crimes against children are not tolerated by people insude.

  6. >The SPAL also asks the public to contact police if they are feeling unsafe during neighbourhood disputes.

    >”I called the police and since they were taking time to come, we rushed to bring the child to the hospital. **And one hour later, police arrived,”**

    What good are the police going to do if they don’t show up for that long?

    The least shocking thing about this article. Violent offender (allegedly) brutally attacks a child and is immediately released on bail, as is custom in Canada.

  8. I don’t want to be that guy but as a resident of Quebec, they really need to address the casual accepted racism here. The fact that this woman got released on the same day is wild

  9. What’s wrong with this lady? Sadly she will hardy get any time but definitely going to get sued and rightfully so. Â
