Publication ban argued in Wal-Mart baby case
BRIGETTE JOBIN
The Prince Albert Daily Herald
Lawyers argued Monday afternoon against and for a publication ban protecting the identity of the woman charged with abandoning her baby in the toilet of a Wal-Mart washroom.
Since the 21-year-old woman made her first court appearance on Sept. 13, a publication ban has been in place protecting her identity. Although there is no specific clause in the criminal code protecting the accused woman – there is a section protecting victims and witnesses – the ban was ordered.
