The Court of Appeal of Alberta determined Tyler Laberge's initial trial included mistakes on the part of the judge in his dismissal of the Crown's expert evidence as speculative.

The girl's mother left the child with Laberge on the afternoon of March 11, 2018 and the girl was watching a movie in her room. Less than two hours after she left, the mother received a call at work telling her to come home. She arrived to find her daughter non-responsive with her pupils dilated. The girl arrived in hospital with numerous injuries including brain swelling, facial abrasions, a goose egg on her head, multiple bruises on her chest, legs, belly, groin and back, and genital swelling and bleeding.
