The applicant, a 73-year-old man charged with second-degree murder of his son, sought release on bail under s. 520 of the Criminal Code.
He had previously been granted bail but voluntarily returned to custody, causing his surety to revoke.
The Crown opposed bail on the secondary and tertiary grounds.
The court found no material change in the sureties' ability to supervise the applicant and noted his compliance with previous bail conditions.
Applying the principles from St. Cloud and Antic, the court granted bail on the original terms with additional conditions regarding alcohol prohibition and surety visits.
