DRUMMONDVILLE, Que. – A woman in Drummondville, Quebec is undergoing a psychiatric examination after she was charged with killing her three young children.
   
Sonia Blanchette faces three counts of first-degree murder.
   
The bodies of her children, aged two, four, and five, were found last Sunday in her Drummondville home.
   
Blanchette, 33, appeared dazed during a court appearance yesterday in Drummondville.
   
Patrick Desautels, the victims’ father, was in the court, but said nothing entering or leaving.
   
After no plea was entered, the judge ordered Blanchette to remain in custody, and return to court on Friday of next week.
   
Reports say a custody order gave Blanchette access to the children once every two weeks, but only under supervision.
   
Police won’t say how the two girls and one boy died.
   
Funeral services are set for Saturday in Acton Vale, Quebec.
