Case of Quebec couple charged in 7-year-old girl’s death put off until June
GRANBY, Que. — The case of a couple charged with the mistreatment of a seven-year-old girl who died last month has been put off.
Neither accused was present today as their expected bail hearing was postponed at the courthouse in Granby, Que., about 80 kilometres east of Montreal.
The girl’s father, 30, and stepmother, 35, were each charged with unlawful confinement while the woman was also charged with aggravated assault.
The girl died in hospital shortly after the couple’s initial April 30 court appearance, one day after being found in the family home.
