The BCCNM is allowed to continue its legal action against a woman accused of the manslaughter death of an infant in Ladysmith in 2024 by RCMP, a BC Supreme Court Justice decided.
The BC College of Nurses and Midwives is allowed to continue its legal action against Gloria Lemay, a woman recently charged the manslaughter death of an infant in Ladysmith in a separate legal action, a BC Supreme Court Justice recently ruled.
At the time, Mounties said that investigators believed “Ms. Lemay’s involvement in the birth process led to the child’s injuries and eventual death.”The RCMP investigation was separate from the BCCNM’s investigation, though both groups had coordinated to search Lemay’s home on Jan.
The college seized a range of items during its search, though Lemay’s application was centered around three categories – the first being seized electronic storage devices, such as USB sticks, an SD card removed from a video camera, and a camera with an SD card still inside – and the second being a box referred to as “Box T,” which contained various paperwork, including files that Lemay said were subject to solicitor-client privilege.
However, the college says it only made copies of items that were relevant to its legal action, including a handwritten letter regarding a birth and a series of patient charts and records, and that all items have been returned, with no copies made of irrelevant materials. The BCCNM argued that the SD cards and USB devices were “not analogous to tablets or computers,” while Lemay asserted that they ought to be, and that “personal electronic devices” should have been understood by the college to include those electronic storage devices.
