B.C. judge rejects Crown’s psych request in kidnapping case
Vancouver — A B.C. Supreme Court judge has rejected the Crown’s request for a psychiatric assessment of a French woman convicted of abducting her two kids.
Justice Marvyn Koenigsberg says there is no evidence to justify such an exam, and calls it a “profound invasion of a person’s privacy.”
Prosecutors wanted the assessment before sentencing to determine whether Nathalie Gettliffe posed a risk of kidnapping the children again.
She took her two children to France from Canada in 2001, triggering a five-year legal fight by the Vancouver father, Scott Grant, to bring them home.
The defence argued that irrational acts do not mean a person is mentally ill.
A date for a sentencing hearing has not been determined.
