The accused was charged with three counts of second-degree murder for the killings of his partner and her two children.
The accused admitted to the killings but argued he lacked the requisite intent for murder due to a cocaine-induced psychosis.
The court rejected the intoxication defence, finding the accused's actions and post-offence conduct inconsistent with a psychotic state.
The court found the accused had the specific intent for murder for all three victims and found him guilty on all counts.
