QUEBEC CITY A young Quebec mother whose baby was found dead in a trash can behind her apartment this week has been charged with second-degree murder.
Marie-Eve Bastille, 22, made a court appearance Thursday in Quebec City.
She is also charged with one count of concealing the newborn's body in addition to a charge of negligence to obtain assistance in child-birth that was laid Wednesday.
The young mother was under surveillance at an area hospital after the grim discovery on Monday, but has since been transferred to a detention centre infirmary.
Her bail hearing is set for Sept. 22.
