STONY PLAIN, Alta. — A bail hearing has heard that a woman accused in the drowning death of a five-year-old girl in an Alberta lake didn't know the child and was supposed to be under house arrest.

There is a court-ordered publication ban on identifying the child but not on details from Wednesday's hearing in provincial court in Stony Plain, Alta. The prosecutor said the girl's father, in another boat, then approached Quinn and asked where his daughter was. The woman said she didn't know.He said the father jumped into the water, causing Quinn to fall in. The father pulled the child's body into the boat and performed CPR.

Shortly after, Mounties said the canoe didn't capsize and the drowning was being investigated as a criminal matter. Quinn was later arrested. Schmidt said it's not believed that Quinn deliberately planned the child's death, but her actions afterward show she was trying to hide her involvement.
