The Ontario Review Board held an annual review hearing for the accused, who was previously found not criminally responsible for assault causing bodily harm.
The parties presented a joint position that the accused continues to pose a significant threat to public safety due to his schizoaffective disorder and history of substance use.
The Board accepted the joint recommendation, finding that absent a disposition, the accused would likely become non-compliant with medication and decompensate.
The Board ordered a renewal of the detention disposition with privileges, including supervised community accommodation.
