Crime Beat TV published this video item, entitled “Cindy Ali: Toronto woman acquitted of murdering teen daughter with cerebral palsy at retrial” – below is their description.
For the first time in 13 years, Cindy Ali can breathe a sigh of relief, after being found not guilty of murdering her daughter Cynara — who had cerebral palsy — in Scarborough, Ont.
Crown prosecutors had argued in the original trial that after years of being the primary caregiver for the infant-like Cynara, Ali smothered her daughter with a pillow and then created an elaborate story about a home invasion at their Scarborough home to cover up her crime.
Ali’s defence lawyers had argued, however, that Cynara was cherished by her mother and died either after seizures that might have been triggered by the alleged home invasion, or from a lung infection, which she was known to be susceptible to.
In a courtroom full of Ali’s family, friends and supporters following a retrial on Friday, Ali was acquitted of the first-degree murder charge and found not guilty of manslaughter.
Catherine McDonald has the details.
