According to the prosecution, the College of Physicians and Roy made pressures on the hospital Amqui in order to restore its functions Dr. Paquet who had been accused of misjudgements. It had been referred to a hospital in the Beauce before being hired six months later at Amqui.
The Superior Court wondered whether the mother died without the great tolerance and pressures of the College of Physicians and the former registrar Roy.
"These people may be, notwithstanding the passage of time, sought responsibilities, even as far as 41 years later, and that is what the Superior Court gave us the answer," said counsel for the prosecution Gervais Turbide.
The College of Physicians analyzes the decision of the Superior Court. The body is not known yet whether to appeal the decision.
