The Ontario Review Board conducted an annual review of the accused's disposition following a finding of not criminally responsible for murder.
The accused, diagnosed with schizophrenia, had a positive reporting year but recently suffered a significant decompensation involving delusions and paranoia directed at his parents.
The Board accepted the hospital's evidence that the accused continues to pose a significant threat to public safety.
The Board ordered continued detention at the forensic service with added privileges for community living (to access housing waitlists) and accompanied passes into the community within a 150-kilometre radius to allow family visits.
