Woman faces prison after setting boyfriend's penis on fire

MONTREAL - Sentencing arguments will begin in November for a woman who followed in the footsteps of Lorena Bobbitt, the Virginia woman who gained infamy in 1993 for slicing off her husband's penis.

Andree Rene's weapon of choice was fondue fuel.

Following an argument in April, 2001, the woman set her boyfriend's penis on fire as he slept. advertisement

The 52-year-old man suffered third-degree burns in the pelvic area and on his chest. He spent a month in hospital.

Rene was found guilty of aggravated assault last year.

Sentencing arguments begin Nov. 21.

It's not clear why so much time elapsed between conviction and sentencing.

The maximum sentence is 14 years in prison.

The Crown attorney said he will ask for a jail term, but wouldn't elaborate on how many years in prison he will seek.

Rene remains free on bail until sentencing.

Legal analyst Steven Slimovitch said Rene could avoid a jail sentence, unless she acted with premeditation.
