Episode Details

A man found not criminally responsible for serious sexual assault and threats against a close relative and others has been granted an absolute discharge by Ontario’s Review Board — meaning he’s officially free from supervision. Diagnosed with schizophrenia and mild intellectual disability, he’s shown remarkable progress since entering treatment in 2017, with no incidents during hospitalization and steady behavior in a supervised group home since 2022. His doctors attribute his past actions to psychosis and cognitive challenges, and his clean drug tests and positive social interactions support his rehabilitation. The board concluded he poses no significant public risk — a rare and cautious decision that reflects their high threshold for safety concerns, and they wish him well moving forward.
