The 16-year-old girl accused of killing a six-week-old boy had never met the infant’s family but was still invited to their home by his sympathetic mother, according to the child’s grandfather. She had nowhere to go,” said the grandfather outside Saskatoon provincial court, where the 16-year-old girl charged with second-degree murder made another brief appearance. The 16-year-old girl was taken into custody and charged later in the day. In August 2015, the girl was charged with assault causing bodily harm and assault with a weapon in Meadow Lake. The 16-year-old girl — who cannot be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act — was recently sentenced for committing four separate crimes in 2015.
