Overview
- Quebec court Judge Marc Antoine Carette imposed the sentence at the Longueuil courthouse.
- The assault occurred on Oct. 2, 2024, when Stéphanie Borel opened her door and threw boiling water at a boy approaching to ring the bell during a ring-and-run prank.
- The 10-year-old suffered second-degree burns to about four per cent of his body, including his face, chest and shoulder blade.
- A publication ban protects the child's identity, and an agreed statement of facts says there is no evidence the attack was racially motivated.
- Borel’s bail was revoked in October, and she has about 20 months remaining to serve on the sentence.
