LONGUEUIL, QUE (Canada).?A Quebec man who slapped his teenage daughter so hard she died has been sentenced to 60 days in jail.

Moussa Sidime is expected to serve his time two days a week over 30 weeks.

He was sentenced Wednesday in court in Longueuil, south of Montreal.

The 74-year-old man had pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the death of his 13-year-old daughter Noutene in October 2010.

The court heard Sidime struck her because he didn?t like how she?d completed a chore and because she had been disrespectful.

It was Sidime who called 911 himself after finding the girl unconscious minutes later. She died after a few days in hospital.

The Crown was seeking a prison sentence.

Sidime?s lawyer had argued for leniency, calling the death an exceptional case.

Hmm, a slap shouldn't kill somebody. There must have been some unknown condition she had. But jeez, 2 days a week in jail for 30 weeks? Seems like a super odd sentence for killing a little girl.

Not everything requires blood for blood or for someone to die in a cell, clearly the courts found it to be an accident, no motive of intent and chances are the guy is devastated and now has to live with himself the rest of his short remaining years, what good does it really do to have him sit in jail for a Cpl of years when rehabilitation isn't necessary as it was a once off and retribution is served by what he has to live with.

Dont forget this happened in Canada.

*slap* "sorry'
*dies* "sorry"
*judge* "sorry"
*old guy* "sorry"

and that pretty much sums it all up right there.

BUT WHAT THE HELL IS A 73YO DOING WITH A 13YO DAUGHTER?! Thats the real crime :/

Couldn't agree more

?For a Muslim, you believe that what has happened is the will of God . . . . Whatever would have come out today would have been what God wanted ? as with the passing of our sister, said Aissatou Sidim?-Blanton, who travelled from Texas to be at Wednesday?s sentencing.

 

Yeah, why am I not surprised which religion is involved here?

To the contrary - EVERYONE who is affiliated with a religion has commited a crime... well except for Buddhism -

You actually googled and had to copy & Paste 10 links - just to get shot down with 1 comment - that sucks

Actually, its not me who got shot down, you proved what I was saying is correct. Any human can commit a crime, no matter what religion they belong to, even atheist commit crime.

I think most of the violence done by Buddhists is done to themselves, isnt it ?   Your wiki link actually mentioned they are among the least violent religions.  And the wiki link even states they had more than enough just cause for violence...

I know I erroneously said Buddhists NEVER commited violence - but when one thinks of a Buddhist - violence is not what comes to mind.

I know you see what I am saying - (of course I didnt really mean NO Buddhist EVER commited ANY violent act , my absolution was journalistic sensationalism)  but I know you see and agree with what Im saying... ;)

And now that I read your original post - I see the sarcasm - I guess it was late when I read it - or I was hopped up on Diet Coke and Tramadol - so to that I apologize.

 

Buddhist aren't that violent, that's why Buddhist (monks no less) have been killing anyone that isn't Buddhist in Burma for the past couple years, going as far as setting people on fire. This might be from 2012, but the discriminatory attacks haven't stopped.

    • I've been on Deezer for over a decade, but glad that Tidal joined them in fighting AI slop. Can't stand such takes as Spotify's: "Spotify's CEO recently pushed back against listeners who call AI music "slop," urging people to stop using the term and instead embrace the creative potential of AI music."
    • “Could” … in the IS the healthcare is run by insurance companies that make indecent profits denying basic treatments to people that are paying money for nothing. Besides, where are all the Trump epigones who were stating that the tariffs were going to paid by foreign companies and not the US citizens? …
    • Microsoft Teams gets smarter at spotting sneaky meeting bots by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is set to receive a couple of new features soon, including a dedicated Recap app and a rather controversial location tracking functionality. The Redmond tech giant has also explained how it has made online communication and collaboration a lot more performant this year. Now, the company has detailed more secure bot admission mechanisms, as first reported by us in March 2026, and now available in Teams. As the use of AI has expanded across enterprise environments, Microsoft has begun allowing users to integrate bots into their meetings for various tasks, such as note-taking. While this has a tangible productivity benefit for users, Microsoft has highlighted how misconfiguration has allowed bots to join meetings that they shouldn't. This has created security and privacy risks, which Microsoft is now combating using a new Teams admin policy that allows organizers to control how external bots access meetings. Admins can leverage a policy called Manage external bots and their access to meetings. The default configuration is "When detected, require approval before joining", which places detected bots in a lobby before they are explicitly admitted into the meeting. The other option disables the experience. Microsoft has also requested admins to only allow organizers and co-organizers to manage access to a meeting, so that other people don't randomly allow bots into meetings. Teams will now be able to leverage infrastructure signals to intelligently detect and distinguish between bots and humans. Microsoft will soon also trial a registration experience for independent software vendors (ISVs) to build a system that registers a bot with Microsoft, so it is marked as a "known" bot. Teams will also categorize bots as trusted and suspected threats so that organizers can quickly identify which bots they want to allow into a meeting. Additional safeguards to block accidental admission of a bot into a meeting include: No one-click Admit option for identified bots Confirmation prompts when admitting participants that include bots Warnings when organizers choose Admit all, and bots are included Microsoft has begun rolling out this experience, and it will be retiring the current CAPTCHA verification implementation. In the future, the company plans to roll out new capabilities like allow-lists, organization-wide policies, admin reports, audit logs, and more granular controls.
    • With the current hardware prices Microsoft should lift the restriction. Then if you have the correct TPM then allow you to use X feature, if you don't have the correct TPM then don't but still actually let you run windows. 11. With a disclaimer during install that X features would be unavailable.
