MONTREAL (CP) - A woman who used fondue fuel to set her boyfriend's ####### on fire will spend the holidays in jail.

Police arrested Andree Rene last week after she failed to turn up in court for sentencing arguments on a charge of aggravated assault. She was ordered Monday to remain in custody until her Jan. 8 sentencing hearing. Rene, who will turn 44 next week, was led into the courtroom in handcuffs. They were taken off briefly when she was questioned in the witness box.

In April 2001, Rene's boyfriend went to bed following a heated argument between them. As he snoozed, Rene doused the man's private parts with fuel and set them aflame.

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

Crown prosecutor Steeve Lariviere reprimanded the woman for breaking her bail conditions, saying she failed to notify the court of her change of address in Sorel, northeast of Montreal.

She had also been ordered not to consume any alcohol.

Rene told the court she missed the earlier legal date because she had to visit a doctor for a pain in her shoulder.

"She's going to stay detained until the end of the proceedings," Lariviere told reporters outside the courtroom.

"That's the consequences of her absence. . she was free but we revoked her bail conditions."

Rene, who was found guilty last year, faces a maximum sentence of 14 years in prison and the Crown attorney said he will seek a prison sentence.

"Sentencing is not revenge. . .(but) at this point we do not have a common recommendation," Lariviere said.

He added that negotiations were continuing with Rene's lawyer.

Lariviere said the woman underwent an earlier psychiatric examination and was found fit to stand trial.

The John Wayne Bobbit incident seems to have forever entertained in the minds of deranged women what they could do to their husband/boyfriend.

Although we kinda snicker when we hear such stories, if it were the guy mutilating a woman's breasts or nether region we'd be shocked and outraged.

This is sick behavior and disgusting that a woman would ever consider mutilating a man. I hope she gets locked up for life.

I'm not quite sure where this is coming from or why you're compelled to point this part out here - I don't see this as a gender issue and no one on this thread has laughed or snickered about it (male or female). *confused aura*

I think shocked and outraged are appropriate responses for violent acts of mutilation, none of which are gender/race/age specific.

edit: And yes, she should be locked up.
