The Court of Appeal upheld a Review Board disposition ordering detention in a secure forensic unit due to a high risk of absconding.
The appellant appealed a disposition of the Ontario Review Board that ordered his detention in a secure forensic unit, arguing for a hybrid order allowing the hospital discretion over placement.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, finding the Board's decision reasonable given the uncontested evidence that the appellant remained a significant threat to public safety and posed a high risk of absconding.
