The 16-year-old had been taken in by the family when they met her downtown that weekend. She had recently walked away from open custody at Kilburn Hall.
"It hurts right here in my heart," said Eva Meechance outside of court Monday.
She said that she'd like to see the baby's killer go to prison for life.
Prosecutor John Knox said he's still reviewing disclosure with the defence.
The teen, who cannot be named because of her age, is back in court later this month.
