The accused, who was found not criminally responsible in 2003 for various offences, was subject to a mandatory annual review hearing before the Ontario Review Board.
The Board accepted the uncontroverted psychiatric evidence that the accused continues to pose a significant threat to public safety due to schizophrenia, substance use disorder, and a history of elopement.
The Board ordered the continuation of the accused's detention disposition at the Brockville Mental Health Centre, with privileges up to and including living in the community in approved accommodation.
