The Ontario Review Board held an annual review and initial hearing for an accused found not criminally responsible for multiple offences, including assault and impaired driving.

The accused, diagnosed with bipolar disorder, had a history of rapid decompensation and non-compliance with medication.

The Board found that the accused continued to pose a significant threat to public safety.

A detention order was maintained, with privileges including domestic and foreign travel, provided the accused adhered to a long-acting injectable antipsychotic treatment regimen.
