Detention disposition renewed for NCR accused who continues to pose a significant threat to public safety.
The Ontario Review Board held an annual review hearing for the accused, who was previously found not criminally responsible for assault causing bodily harm.
The parties presented a joint position that the accused continues to pose a significant threat to public safety due to his schizoaffective disorder and history of substance use.
The Board accepted the joint recommendation, finding that absent a disposition, the accused would likely become non-compliant with medication and decompensate.
The Board ordered a renewal of the detention disposition with privileges, including supervised community accommodation.
