Suspected compassion killing in Montreal: case to resume Wednesday
MONTREAL — A preliminary hearing will resume Wednesday in Montreal for a man charged with murdering his wife in a suspected compassion killing.
Michel Cadotte, 56, was charged in February with second-degree murder, one day after his wife, Jocelyne Lizotte, 60, was discovered in cardiac arrest at a long-term care facility.
The hearing is to determine whether there is enough evidence to send Cadotte to trial.
He was granted bail under several conditions earlier this month.
