A woman who allegedly left a baby alone in a Montreal apartment that caught fire is facing a new charge of obstructing police work. Josee Milot pleaded not guilty to the obstruction charge before her lawyer told reporters he would seek an addiction therapy treatment for her.
Montreal police believe Milot started cooking something on the stove and then left the apartment when she was meant to be taking care of the baby. A police unit working nearby crawled through heavy smoke to save the infant.
A bail hearing set for Tuesday was put off and the case returns to court on Sept. 11, by when Cabral hopes to know if therapy is something that can be proposed to the court.
