The accused was found not criminally responsible for assault with a weapon.
At the initial Ontario Review Board hearing, the Hospital and the Attorney General recommended a detention order with privileges, which the accused supported with a minor modification regarding possessing a lighter.
The Board reviewed the accused's history of schizophrenia, substance use, and non-compliance with treatment in the community.
The Board concluded that the accused remains a significant threat to the safety of the public and ordered a detention order with the recommended conditions, including the permission to possess a lighter for cigarettes.
