Crown prosecutors have filed an appeal over the case of foster parent Eunice Wudrich, who was found not guilty of criminal negligence causing death in relation to Evander Daniels, who died while in her care in 2010.
The toddler was found in a bathtub. An autopsy noted scalding burns on his body and determined drowning was the cause of death.
After a trial in January, a Saskatoon judge — in February — found Wudrich not guilty.
The judge said the case was tragic.
