LAVAL—Amanda and Sabrina De Vito are the forgotten victims of their parents’ indifference, a victims’ advocate said Friday as the Crown and defence tangled in court over what would constitute an appropriate sentence for their mother.

Adele Sorella was convicted in March of two counts of second-degree murder in the deaths of nine-year-old Amanda and eight-year-old Sabrina. The girls were found dead in the family home in Laval on March 31, 2009.
