The accused, charged with multiple unprovoked violent and sexual assaults, underwent a mandatory 90-day bail review under s. 525 of the Criminal Code.
The court found that the accused was not in a time-served position, had caused the delays by repeatedly firing his counsel, and lacked an adequate release plan.
Given his extensive criminal record and the nature of the allegations, the court concluded there was a substantial likelihood he would re-offend.
The continued detention of the accused was held to be justified on the secondary ground.
