The accused was found not criminally responsible on account of mental disorder for first-degree murder and remanded to a psychiatric hospital.
The Ontario Review Board held an initial hearing to determine the appropriate disposition.
The Board found that the accused represents a significant threat to public safety due to a diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder, a history of medication noncompliance, and repeated violent behavior.
The Board ordered the accused detained at the hospital's High Secure Provincial Forensic Programs Division, with privileges including escorted access to hospital grounds beyond the secure perimeter.
