The Ontario Review Board held an annual hearing for an accused found not criminally responsible for assault, robbery, and sexual interference.
The accused, diagnosed with schizophrenia, had an unauthorized leave of absence during the reporting year and exhibited periods of mutism, though he generally complied with hospital rules and medication.
Based on uncontested psychiatric evidence and a joint submission, the Board found the accused remains a significant threat to public safety due to limited insight and risk of decompensation.
The Board ordered the continuation of his Detention Order.
