The case has been adjourned to Campbelltown Local Court till November 9.

Police are still investigating how the little girl died. Police are also trying to find out if the child was alone at home or being looked after while the mother was away on weekend and met with the accident.

Robyn Fransisco, whose parents live opposite the house, earlier on Tuesday said the mother “didn’t seem like the kind of mother who’d leave her daughter alone”.
