"People have commented that they're shocked and taken aback by this, and this is not her demeanour," Barry told reporters as he left a court appearance Wednesday.
He said he hasn't had much time to get to know his client, but that she seemed upset by the attention from the media.
"
She's been basically a deer in the headlights because it's all happening so quickly."
However, he said police have told him that she's co-operating with their investigation.
Bisesar is expected to return to court on Friday, after police and the Crown have had time to gather evidence.
He said the Crown will contest grounds for bail, arguing that his client may flee the jurisdiction or commit further offences. The Crown will also argue that she shouldn't be released because the allegations "are just so horrific," he said.
Barry said he will argue that his client should be granted bail, with a series of conditions to protect the public and to ensure that she returns to court. He said she has no prior criminal record or outstanding charges.
