The murder trial of an Alberta woman accused of drowning her young sons has begun, two years after the two were found dead by their father in the bathtub of their Millet home.
Crown prosecutor Gordon Hatch told the court the case is not one of who, what, where or when, but of why. The case will come down to Court of Queen's Bench Justice Michelle Crighton deciding Allyson McConnell's state of mind when she drowned her two children, he said.
McConnell, 33, is charged with second-degree murder in the deaths of 10-month-old Jayden and Connor, 2. Their bodies were found by their father, Curtis McConnell, in the bathtub of their Millet home, 40 kilometres south of Edmonton, on Feb. 1, 2010.
On Monday morning, the accused, wearing a grey suit and looking solemn but alert, entered a not-guilty plea shortly after entering the Wetaskiwin courtroom.
