Karla Homolka? Leanne Teale? Whatever?

says Niagara police would seek court order if she came back

If schoolgirl killer Karla Homolka decides to return to Ontario, with
or without a child, Niagara Region police will gather evidence with
an eye to seeking a recognizance order to guard public safety, Attorney
General Michael Bryant said yesterday.
His comments came on the heels of reports Homolka gave birth
Feb. 3 to a seven-pound boy at a Montreal hospital.
"The last contact that Niagara police had with her was that she
expressly was not going to come into this province," Bryant said
at a Liberal policy conference in Niagara Falls.
He would not comment on whether authorities would take steps to
remove a child from her care should she come back to her home
province.
"We have no evidence that she's coming here," he said,
adding, "actually, I have no evidence that she's had a kid."
According to an anonymous letter sent to
Journal de Montréal, Homolka was admitted to St. Mary's
Hospital Jan. 30, but was sent home hours later after her
contractions proved to be false labour.
The letter said hospital staff recognized Homolka and refused
to treat her.
On Feb. 2, she was readmitted, under the name
Leanne Teale, and gave birth the following day.
The birth was a complicated one, with the baby's umbilical
cord rolled up around his neck, an anonymous source at the
hospital's mother-child unit told the newspaper.
It's believed Homolka, 36, was released from the hospital, which
is located in a residential area northwest of downtown
Montreal near St. Joseph's Oratory, on Monday morning.
The report says Homolka met the baby's father through
her former lawyer, Sylvie Bordelais, and they plan to
marry in the Antilles islands as soon as they can get a passport
for their son.
Bordelais did not return the Toronto Star's calls, but yesterday
told the TVA television network suggestions Homolka is
living in a bungalow on Montreal's South Shore are
inaccurate, as is the intimation she introduced her to the
child's father.
Calls to Homolka's parents in St. Catharines went unanswered
yesterday.
According to Quebec's Order of Nurses, the hospital is conducting
an internal investigation into a complaint Homolka was turned
away when she tried to check in. "We don't have any reason to
believe at this point that any discrimination has occurred," said
spokesperson Chantal Charron. The order's disciplinary
committee has been in contact with the hospital, Charron told
the Star.
Tim Danson, lawyer for Leslie Mahaffy and Kristen French, the
teens slain by Homolka and her former husband Paul Bernardo
in 1991, said yesterday the parents are despondent by recent reports.
"There's a very disturbing irony to all of this," said the Toronto
lawyer. "They'll never be grandparents from Kristen and Leslie, and
won't have a normal life.
And, here's Karla Homolka who's free and giving birth – that's the
disturbing irony."
Homolka served 12 years in prison for the sex murders of both
teens as well as the fatal drug rape of her sister, Tammy, 15.
She was released from prison in July 2005 and made her
home in Joliette, Quebec, a suburb of Montreal. Five months
later, a Quebec Superior Court justice lifted court-imposed
conditions placed on her freedoms.
