Mr. C. Flanagan

The Ontario Review Board conducted an annual review for an accused found not criminally responsible for robbery and uttering threats.

The accused, diagnosed with treatment-resistant schizophrenia, had made significant progress and utilized hospital passes responsibly.

The Board accepted the joint submission that the accused continues to pose a significant threat to public safety due to his ongoing symptoms and risk of medication non-compliance without oversight.

The Board ordered the continuation of the detention disposition with a new condition allowing for indirect supervision into the community.
