Montreal man charged in slaying of spouse, 60, at long-term care facility
MONTREAL — A Montreal man was charged Tuesday with second-degree murder in the slaying of his spouse, a death he suggests was driven by compassion.
Michel Cadotte was formally arraigned by video conference one day after Jocelyne Lizotte, 60, was discovered in cardiac arrest at a long-term care facility.
Authorities tried in vain to revive her.
Cadotte, 55, was arrested by Montreal police at the facility on Monday.
