The accused was found not criminally responsible on account of mental disorder for charges including advocating genocide and willful promotion of hatred after posting over 4,000 antisemitic messages on social media.
At his initial disposition hearing before the Ontario Review Board, the panel found that he continues to represent a significant threat to the safety of the public due to his diagnosis of schizophrenia, pathological anger, and high risk of violent re-offending.
The Board ordered a detention order with discretionary privileges, including the potential for indirectly supervised passes in the community, and imposed strict conditions monitoring his access to the internet and social media.
