THUNDER BAY — The mother of a special needs child who was found severely dehydrated and malnourished pleaded guilty to charges and was sentenced to time served.

The court heard that between March 2017 and November 2017, Dilico Anishinabek Family Care in Thunder Bay received several anonymous tips regarding the condition of the children of the accused. A Gladue report detailed intergenerational trauma experienced by the accused resulting from the residential school system. She was also subject to violent domestic abuse for several years and grief from having previously lost a child to sudden infant death syndrome.

A joint submission between the Crown and defense was presented to the court calling for a time served sentence accounting for 200 enhanced days of pre-sentence custody.
