Sentencing arguments begin Tuesday for a Calgary woman who pleaded guilty to killing her infant son, and severely injuring her older son.
Stacey Joy Bourdeaux admitted to smothering one child to death.
The second boy was also smothered with a pillow, but survived; he was left with no motor skills as a result of being deprived of oxygen.
The two incidents were over five years apart; the death happened in December 2004 and the second incident in May 2010.
Bourdeaux pleaded guilty in August to manslaughter and attempted murder.
