The hospital requested an early review of the accused's disposition to recommend transferring his care to the Southwest Centre for Forensic Mental Health Care, following his relocation to Windsor for employment.
The accused, who was previously found not criminally responsible for assault with a weapon, continues to suffer from schizophrenia and a substance use disorder.
The Ontario Review Board found that the accused continues to pose a significant threat to public safety.
The Board approved the transfer and ordered that the accused remain subject to a Detention Order Disposition to ensure adequate supervision and risk management in his new community.
