REASONS FOR DISPOSITION
(Dated June 19, 2025)
Introduction
1Mr. Korhani was found not criminally responsible (NCR) on May 27, 2024, for the criminal code offences of uttering a threat to cause death x 4, assault bodily harm by choking, and assault.
2A panel of the Ontario Review Board convened this initial hearing on May 7, 2025 at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) to impose a Disposition pursuant to s. 672.47(1) of the Criminal Code of Canada. There was a delay in obtaining the relevant court documents which prevented this hearing from being scheduled on an earlier date.
3At the commencement of the hearing, the Hospital recommended a detention order with privileges extending to living in the community. Crown Counsel supported this position. Counsel for Mr. Korhani submitted that either an absolute discharge, or should the Board make a finding of significant threat, a conditional discharge was appropriate. Counsel suggested the terms of the conditional discharge could include: a residency clause identifying his parents’ home, a treatment condition, reporting not less that every two weeks, and a condition prohibiting contact with the victim.
4At the conclusion of the hearing, the panel concluded that a detention order was necessary and appropriate. The appropriate terms include community living in approved accommodation, no substances or weapons, no contact with the victim of these offences, and providing urine samples to test for the presence of non prescribed substances.
Index Offences
5The following is a synopsis of the facts pertaining to the index offences.
The victim, Tina Tessier, and the accused Amir Korhani were in a relationship for approximately four years. The couple was engaged, however, due to the accused's volatile behaviour the relationship was ended by the victim in December 2022. The victim was living with the accused in the City of Toronto prior to their relationship ending. The victim packed her belongings and left the accused after. Toronto Police were contacted due to the accused's mental state. The accused was subsequently apprehended and transported to the hospital under the Mental Health Act. At that time the victim was concerned for the accused's mental state and did not disclose that the accused had choked her, slapped her, and threatened to kill her. The victim had to block the accused on social media due to his constant messaging. The accused sent multiple messages via email to the victim during the beginning of September which caused the victim to be fearful for her safety, and the safety of her friends and family. The accused threatened to kill anyone that was seen with the victim. The victim attended the Russell County OPP Embrun Detachment and provided disclosure along with a KGB statement.
Police Constable Benoit made arrangements with Toronto OPP Detachment for the accused to turn himself in. On September 7th at approximately 12:00pm, the accused attended the Toronto Detachment where he was arrest by Police Constable Kamal. Police Constable Kamal explained the undertaking and conditions to Korhani. Korhani then advised Police Constable Kamal that he has sent another email to the victim that day. In the email, Korhani told Tessier that he was going to rape her. Korhani was then escorted to the interview room and arrested and charged by Police Constable Gould for: 1. CC. 264.1(1)(a) Uttering threats – cause death or bodily harm. Korhani was then placed in cell #1 at the Ontario Provincial Police – Toronto Detachment.
At 12:55 p.m., Korhani is being escorted to Ontario Provincial Police – Russell County Detachment. The accused was subsequently held for bail. The accused will appear for bail on September 8 2023 at 13:00. The accused's mother is very concerned with the accused's mental health. She has indicated that over the last year the accused's mental health has been declining. The accused's mother believes that he is taking his medication however, they are not working. The accused is Bipolar. The accused's mother requested that the accused be admitted to the hospital for a psychiatric assessment.
Tina-Marie Tessier - The victim, provided a KGB statement. Will say that she is fearful of the accused. “The accused and the victim have engaged in a relationship since 2018 for approximately four years when the victim decided to depart from the relationship in December 2022. Since then, the accused has been repeatedly communicating directly or indirectly with the victim through different means. The victim eventually started receiving emails of a concerning nature from the accused where she decided to attend the police services to report the incident.
On September 7, 2023 at 10:50, Russell County OPP received a complaint from Tina Tessier advising her ex, has been continuing sending her emails [stating] he would rape her, along with her daughter and some family members. Tessier provided evidence that was sent by the accused that he would rape multiple people including the complainant and kill himself afterwards. The accused was scheduled to attend on September 7, 2023 at the Toronto OPP Detachment to turn himself in for five outstanding charges towards the victim in a related occurrence.
At 11:40, Russell County OPP received a call from the Toronto OPP Detachment advising that the accused had attended the Detachment and admitted sending additional threats to the victim(s). Russell County OPP confirmed to Toronto OPP reasonable grounds were present to arrest Amir [Korhani] on one additional charge of CC 264.1(1)(a) Uttering Threats - Cause death or Bodily Harm - Spousal. Russell County OPP also advised Toronto OPP that the accused also wrote in his email that he had planned to kill himself afterwards, raising some concerns after Toronto OPP believed the accused was not in the right state of mind during their conversation. The accused was arrested by Toronto OPP and is being transported to L'Orignal courthouse for Bail on September 8, 2023 at 13:00”.
Risk Assessment dated March 10, 2025
6A Risk Assessment dated March 10, 2025 was provided to the panel and the parties for this hearing and provides a detailed review of Mr. Korhani’s personal and mental health history. The hearing also received the court documentation and a psychiatric report dated February 26, 2024.
7He is diagnosed with Unspecified Bipolar Disorder and Related Disorder, and Cannabis Use Disorder.
8Mr. Korhani was arrested for the index offences in September 2023. He was held in custody for 3 days before being released to the custody of his parents. He has remained living with his parents since that time, and has been followed as an out patient by Dr. I. Guan at CAMH. Dr. Guan is a civil mood specialist and not a forensic psychiatrist, and does not have any expertise in assessing risk.
9Mr. Korhani and his family immigrated to Canada from Germany when he was nine years old. He has two older sisters. In his late adolescence he developed Crohn’s disease.
10Mr. Korhani has no criminal record.
11He attended the University of Kent in the U.K. to obtain an LL.B. degree, after which he obtained an LL.M. from Osgoode Hall Law School. In 2018 he obtained a 2nd LL.M. degree at the University of Ottawa. Mr. Korhani then attended the University of Ottawa and enrolled in their PHD program, but left after 4 years due to the emergence of bipolar symptoms.
12Mr. Korhani and Ms. Tessier began a relationship in 2018. They became engaged and lived for various periods of time at both his parents’ home and Ms. Tessier’s family home. Mr. Korhani expressed to his psychiatrist a history of arguments during the later stages of their relationship, which typically concerned his non-compliance with his psychiatric treatment. He completely discontinued his medication for a period of time.
13At the time of this assessment, Mr. Korhani was living with his parents, and spending his time reading papers, watching television, and going for walks. He was socially isolated and had not spoken with friends since the index offence. His parents provided for him financially.
14Mr. Korhani does not have a history of alcohol abuse. He began smoking cannabis at the age of 19, and continued to smoke cannabis occasionally to the present time according to the information he provided to his psychiatrist. He further advised that he has not experienced any negative psychological effects from the cannabis use, or was he ever told by a physician that cannabis could have a negative impact on his mental state. The assessment report indicates that a review of his medical records reveals much heavier use of cannabis, and that he was advised on multiple occasions that cannabis can have a negative impact on his mental health. The medical records also state that Ms. Tessier reported to his physicians that Mr. Korhani became angrier and more paranoid with cannabis use.
15In 2021, Mr. Korhani was admitted to the Ottawa General Hospital for two weeks after experiencing a psychotic episode. It was during this admission that he was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. He had several other inpatient admissions including to North York General Hospital, where he had been prescribed both antipsychotic medication and mood stabilizing medication, but reported a tendency to be non-compliant with the treatment.
16Mr. Korhani reported being told during an admission to the Ottawa General Hospital that he was manic. He described spending a few thousand dollars on clothing he did not need. His behaviour was a concern to others which resulted in his admissions to hospital.
17Mr. Korhani reported suicidality after his separation from Ms. Tessier in December 2022, which became worse in January 2023. He expressed thoughts of jumping off the family’s 30th floor balcony. He was admitted to the hospital at this time.
18At the time of the NCR assessment, Mr. Korhani reported that he was adherent to his medication, and planned to continue with his treatment and psychiatric follow-up.
19Mr. Korhani advised Dr. Dupre that he first struggled with his mental health in 2021 and he described “uncontrollable mentality”. He recalled being disoriented and not feeling well, but could not remember the symptoms he was displaying. After his discharge from the Ottawa Hospital, Mr. Korhani saw a psychiatrist through the Hawkesbury and District General Hospital. He reported to Dr. Dupre attending all appointments and abiding by their recommendations. The medical records indicate that he did not attend the appointments or adhere to their recommendations.
20The medical records also indicate a history of generalized anxiety and panic attacks.
21Mr. Korhani attended the emergency department of Ottawa General Hospital with Ms. Tessier on August 23, 2021. Mr. Korhani expressed concerns with depression, suicidality, and panic attacks. He reported a history of “panic and rage attacks”, starting a year earlier. Mr. Korhani reported that the attacks had become worse with his use of cannabis.
22On August 24, 2021, Mr. Korhani was brought to the hospital by the police after Ms. Tessier contacted 911. He was initially confrontational. Mr. Korhani advised that his fiancé was newly pregnant which made him very unhappy. He endorsed rage, panic attacks, and symptoms of depression. He described the rage attacks as “so strong he experienced tremors”. Mr. Korhani also described fleeting paranoid thoughts. He also indicated that his cannabis use had increased from 2-3 times weekly to ½ a joint daily since December 2020.
23During his inpatient stay, Mr. Korhani reported that stating in January or February 2021, he stopped attending his PhD classes. At the time he was feeling subservient to his fiancé, and developed a love-hate relationship with most people in his life, including his parents, sisters, and uncles.
24Ms. Tessier advised the psychiatrist at the time that she observed significant changes in his behaviour and presentation starting in March 2021. These episodes would last 3-5 days, and the be followed by 2 days of depression. He would become angry and mean, and accuse her of cheating on him. He would have increased energy and often talk non-stop from 6:30 a.m. to midnight. Mr. Korhani told Ms. Tessier about an entity speaking to him and telling him that he was a prophet and that the end of the world was near. He had spent nearly $20,000 on clothing.
25Mr. Korhani’s sister Ladan was interviewed. She recalled her brother having 1-2 weeks of increased anger from a young age. He would become very talkative as if “on a high”, and he would call his parent to tell them he hated them.
26On September 1, 2021, Mr. Korhani discussed increased stress related to his fiance’s pregnancy. He endorsed fears of losing his independence, and noted that he “does not like when rules and restrictions are placed on him. This represents a lack of respect for him.” On September 3, 2021, Mr. Korhani reported experiencing overwhelming anger toward his family when his sister denied his request for money.
27Mr. Korhani reported to his psychiatrist that he had abused oxycodone, T3, and opium between the ages of 21 and 26. He also indicated that he would not stop drinking alcohol or consuming cannabis despite the recommendations from his psychiatrist.
28Mr. Korhani attended an emergency department on September 13, 2021, again a result of rage and suicidal ideation. He also reported auditory hallucinations. Mr. Korhani refused to wait for the psychiatrist and left the hospital.
29He was an inpatient from November 15, 2021 to December 2, 2021. The medical records refer to Mr. Korhani expressing delusional thoughts at the time. Mr. Korhani reported daily use of cannabis, and indicated that he would not stop his cannabis use. On his discharge, Mr. Korhani was to follow-up with the psychiatrist the following month, but did not reattend until March 16, 2022.
30Following the index offences Mr. Korhani has lived with his parents. He expressed frustration with his financial dependence on his parents, but does not feel well enough to seek employment. He indicated that he consumes 1 gram of cannabis per week.
31Mr. Korhani has not been readmitted to the hospital since February 2023. Since October 2023, he has been followed at CAMH. Against Dr. Guan’s recommendation, Mr. Korhani discontinued the lamotrigine he was prescribed.
32Between October 2023 and March 2024, Mr. Korhani attended 12 sessions of 1:1 virtual psychotherapy with the CAMH outpatient occupational therapist. A review of the records indicates that Mr. Korhani reported a low mood for most of the sessions, and he reported overwhelming agitation and anger related to issues of being bullied in childhood, his family, and concerns about his diagnosis. A few weeks prior to a November 1, 2023 appointment with his psychiatrist, Mr. Korhani reported an incident of self-harm where he was hitting himself in the face. He also reported passive suicidal ideation and paranoia.
33In the fall of 2024, Mr. Korhani reported and improvement in his mental state. He denied experiencing symptoms of depression. There were no symptoms of mania or psychosis observed. At the time of the preparation of the Risk Assessment Report in March 2025, Mr. Korhani had remained mentally stable.
34During a mental status examination in November 2024, Mr. Korhani is described as superficially polite. He was fairly engaged with the interview, but his answers to questions concerning his internal experiences were vague and shallow, and he appeared guarded. He appeared to minimize portions of his history intentionally, mostly related to his history of anger and substance use. He became visibly irritated when he was directed to discrepancies between his accounting of events and the medical records. He also appeared mildly angered when discussing the index offences.
35Mr. Korhani reported a history of generalized anxieties and reported several panic attacks in the past year. He denied any symptoms consistent with agoraphobia or social anxiety disorder.
36In addition to the bipolar diagnosis, the Assessment Report also refers to possible traits of narcissism and borderline personality disorder. The Report refers to the records from the Ottawa Hospital in 2021, when Mr. Korhani displayed significant grandiosity, a need for admiration, and a lack of empathy. He was described as having a big ego, and wanting to associate with other highly learned or accomplished individuals, and having difficulty empathizing with others. He also displayed a dismissive attitude toward the psychiatric advice he received from the psychiatrists over the years. Mr. Korhani was described as guarded and an inconsistent historian.
Testimony Dr. J. Dupre
37Dr. Dupre authored the Risk Assessment and testified at this hearing. She indicated that her only contact with Mr. Korhani was in connection with the completion of the assessment, and she met with him on two occasions, in November and December 2024.
38Her testimony highlighted much of the information contained in the Assessment Report. She indicated that Mr. Korhani’s developmental history needs clarification. Dr. Dupre referred to Mr. Korhani’s history of psychotic episodes, grandiosity, and angry outbursts. She also referred to Mr. Korhani, when ill, experiencing delusions, social withdrawal, suicidality, and responding to internal stimuli. She testified that Mr. Korhani’s insight is poor, and that he is unable to describe the symptoms of his illness despite considerable health teaching. He also has poor insight into the use and effect of cannabis on his mental health, and continues to use the substance despite being advised by doctors that it can have a destabilizing effect on his mental state. She described Mr. Korhani having a superficial understanding of the importance of medication to treat his illness.
39Dr. Dupre advised that he has not yet undergone psychological testing. She further advised, that overall, there are significant discrepancies between Mr. Korhani’s self-report, his mother’s report and the hospital records. The doctor commented that he was a guarded and inconsistent historian.
40Dr. Dupre also indicated that Mr. Korhani does not take full responsibility for the index offence, and he superficially expresses remorse.
41Mr. Korhani lives with his parents, who were not aware of his substance use or the symptoms of a mental illness he was experiencing. This is a concern regarding their ability to recognize an emergence of symptoms, a deterioration in his mental stability, and their ability to inform the Hospital of these changes. Dr. Dupre expressed limited confidence in his parents’ ability to supervise Mr. Korhani when living in the community and safely manage his risk.
42The Assessment Report contains a Psychological Risk Assessment. Dr. Dupre disagrees with the Psychologist’s concluding that Mr. Korhani is a low risk to reoffend. She does not believe the Psychologist fully reviewed all the documentation.
43Dr. Dupre believes the risk of future violence, particularly toward an intimate partner, is high. The doctor commented that his risk of physical or psychological harm could extend to any person with whom he was in any type of relationship.
44Dr. Dupre does not accept that a conditional discharge is appropriate. Mr. Korhani has a history of not following doctors’ directions so he is not likely to follow directions conscientiously in the future. There is a history of difficulties with treatment supervision in the past. She commented that it appears that his coping mechanism is one of avoidance and that he has basically retreated socially and vocationally. She believes he will continue with his cannabis use which will very likely result in a deterioration of his condition. Mr. Korhani’s condition can change very quickly which will require the Hospital to intervene rapidly. Dr. Dupre does not believe that Mr. Korhani would return to the Hospital voluntarily if requested.
45The doctor expressed her concerns that in the early stages of Mr. Korhani experiencing decompensation he would be unlikely to meet the criteria under the Mental Health Act. She commented that this in fact happened the day before he had a 2-week admission the hospital. In addition, the doctor commented that for risk management purposes the hospital needs the ability to approve his accommodation in the community. Dr. Dupre stated that an admission to hospital may be necessary if Mr. Korhani continues to use cannabis. Dr. Dupre also advised that the hospital has not yet had an opportunity to assess Mr. Korhani’s parents’ residence.
46In answering questions from Crown Counsel, Dr. Dupre confirmed that Dr. Adiele, who completed the NCR Assessment, did not review the medical records when he did his report.
47Dr. Dupre agreed with the Crown’s suggestion that Mr. Korhani is an unreliable historian. She also agreed that Mr. Korhani views his mental illness as a stigma and wants to keep his illness hidden from others. Dr. Dupre agreed that Mr. Korhani has discontinued his medication contrary to medical advice in the past. She was referred to the passage in the report where Mr. Korhani stated that he does not like rules or restrictions being placed on him.
48In answer to questions from counsel for Mr. Korhani, Dr. Dupre acknowledged that it is unclear if Mr. Korhani suffers from a personality disorder. His childhood history is not certain, and having more complete information would be very helpful in determining if a personality order exists. Dr. Dupre indicated that there is some personality pathology so this issue should be investigated.
49The parties each agreed that Mr. Korhani has continued to see Dr. Guan at CAMH monthly, and that in January 2025, Mr. Korhani agreed to increase the dosage of Abilify from 15 to 17 mg. daily.
50Dr. Dupre agreed with the suggestion that there has been no further violence since September 2022.
51Dr. Dupre agreed that Dr. Guan has been seeing Mr. Korhani since October 2023, and Dr. Guan has not diagnosed a personality disorder.
52Counsel also referred Dr. Dupre to the Psychological Risk Assessment, and specifically, the reference to low scores on the test for psychopathology, and low scores on the actuarial risk assessment. Dr. Dupre advised that Dr. Guan does not refer to violent risk, and is not involved with the forensic system.
53Dr. Dupre agreed with counsel’s suggestion that Mr. Korhani had remained voluntarily in the hospital in the past.
54Dr. Dupre agreed that the risk of violence is related to interpersonal relationships, and that there is no history of violence to anyone outside of an intimate partner.
55In answer to questions from the panel, Dr. Dupre indicated that she does not believe there is a need for Mr. Korhani to be hospitalized immediately. She stated that he uses avoidance as a coping mechanism. She acknowledged that Mr. Korhani has not worked for the past 4 years. The doctor commented that he presents with the lack of adaptive coping skills and that he is presently functioning well below his demonstrated past capacity.
56Dr. Dupre agreed with the suggestion that neither Mr. Korhani nor his mother are reliable reporters. Dr. Dupre does not believe his mother would recognize signs of decompensation. Dr. Dupre agreed with the suggestion that the parents’ home may not be the preferred residence from the perspective of risk, and that educating the parents on the illness and symptoms would be useful.
57Dr. Dupre indicated that Mr. Korhani leads a very isolative existence. He does not eat or converse to any extent with his parents. He only consults with Dr. Guan virtually, even though she has requested they meet in person. Dr. Dupre suggested that this likely represents a form of agoraphobia.
58In response to questions posed, the doctor identified the following as the plan going forward:
-completing the psychological assessment to clarify his personality issues and diagnoses;
-optimizing his medication;
-encourage his attendance at a variety of therapeutic groups and programs wit the goal of improving his insight across all relevant domains;
-assessing his current residence and the level of his parents’ insight into his illness, and their reliability to appropriately report any concerns to the hospital.
Submissions
59The Hospital submitted that the evidence establishes that Mr. Korhani is a significant threat to the safety of the public and that a detention order is necessary. Mr. Korhani is currently living with his parents, but it is appropriate for the Hospital to have the ability to approve his accommodation which requires a detention order, and to rapidly readmit him to the hospital to manage his risk.
60Crown Counsel supported the Hospital’s submissions, and requested that the Disposition include a no contact provision with the victim of the index offence. Counsel acknowledged that it is unknown if cannabis use effects his mental stability. Counsel also submitted that there are many unknown factors which need to be assessed by the Hospital.
61Counsel for Mr. Korhani submitted that there are many known factors. Mr. Korhani has not been violent since the index offence, he has made no attempt to contact the victim, and he turned himself into the police.
62Mr. Korhani has continued to see Dr. Guan by his own choice. He has been compliant with his medication, and his risk assessment for future violence is low.
63Counsel for Mr. Korhani further submitted that his residence is not related to public safety risk, and that in the past both his mother and sister called 911 when Mr. Korhani was mentally ill, which demonstrates their insight into his condition.
64Counsel submitted that a conditional discharge was appropriate when one considers that Mr. Korhani has sought psychiatric services in the past and stayed in the hospital voluntarily.
65Counsel submitted that prohibiting the use of substances and testing for the consumption of substances was unnecessary.
Analysis
66After considering the evidence, the panel accepts that Mr. Korhani is a significant threat to the safety of the public, and that a detention order is necessary and appropriate.
67His relationship with Ms. Tessier ended in December 2022, and between this time and the time of his arrest in September 2023, Mr. Korhani sent Ms. Tessier almost incessant emails that were very disturbing and threatening. On September 7, 2023, Mr. Korhani sent an email stating that he was going to rape Ms. Tessier, her daughter, and family members. He then planned to kill himself.
68Mr. Korhani explained to one of his doctors that he and Ms. Tessier argued frequently during their relationship about his non-compliance with psychiatric medication.
69Ms. Tessier expressed that Mr. Korhani’s anger became more intense with cannabis use, and he became paranoid. Mr. Korhani has also advised the medical team that his panic and rage attacks worsen with cannabis use. In August 2021, Mr. Korhani was hospitalized in Ottawa, and told staff that since he had recently increased his cannabis use to daily, his rage had become so strong he felt tremors. Mr. Korhani had been experiencing these rage and panic attacks for the previous year.
70In September 2021, Mr. Korhani advised staff that he does not like rules or restrictions being placed on him, and that he would continue using alcohol and cannabis regardless of the directions of medical staff.
71Mr. Korhani recently reported that he does not feel well enough to seek employment.
72From October 2023 to March 2024, Mr. Korhani attended 12 psychotherapy sessions. He advised that he felt overwhelming agitation and anger related to childhood bullying, his family, and his diagnosis.
73Mr. Korhani has a history of not complying with treatment. He was discharged from hospital in December 2021, and directed to follow-up with an outpatient psychiatrist monthly. He did not attend any consultation for 3 months.
74Mr. Korhani is not always forthright with the team. For example, he was directed by the Ottawa Hospital to report to the Hawkesbury Hospital. Mr. Korhani reported that he attended all appointments and complied with his medication. The medical records indicate that both these references are untrue. He has a history of understating his cannabis use and the effect cannabis has on his mental state. This is consistent with the assessment during the mental status examination, where his answers to internal issues were observed to be vague and shallow. He tends to minimize his history, particularly, his anger and substance use.
75These observations are consistent with comments made by the Ottawa Hospital in 2021, which referred to Mr. Korhani demonstrating grandiosity, lack of empathy, big ego, and a dismissive attitude toward psychiatric advice.
76Dr. Dupre testified that his insight is poor, Mr. Korhani has a superficial understanding of the need for medication, and that his risk for violence, especially toward an intimate partner, is high.
77She further stated that his mental condition can change very quickly, and that she does not believe he would voluntarily return to the hospital for readmission if requested. With his history of not following directions, Dr. Dupre believes that a conditional discharge is insufficient to manage the risk to public safety.
78The panel accepts that, without a detention order, Mr. Korhani will continue to consume cannabis and alcohol, his mental condition will most likely decline, and the symptoms of his illness, including anger and rage will be present. It is imperative that the Hospital have the ability to readmit Mr. Korhani very quickly if necessary.
79It is also necessary for the hospital to have the ability to approve his accommodation. The Mental Health Act would very likely not allow the hospital to readmit Mr. Korhani quickly, and would not allow the hospital to approve his housing. Therefore, the Mental Health Act is insufficient to safely manage his risk to the community.
80It is clearly evident that Mr. Korhani has a history of only following the treatment he prefers, and not what his doctors prescribe. He also has a consistent history of medication non-compliance. It is necessary for the Hospital to provide robust supervision to ensure compliance with treatment, and to monitor Mr. Korhani for any changes in his presentation which could be a sign of emerging symptoms and instability.
81It is appropriate that Mr. Korhani abstain from the possession of weapons, and have no contact with Ms. Tessier. His accommodation must be approved by the Hospital, and he is to report to the Hospital at least twice per month.
82In coming to this conclusion, the panel has applied the principles provided in s. 672.5401 of the Criminal Code.
DATED this 19th day of June, 2025, at the City of Toronto, in the Toronto Region.
