A man found not responsible for killing his three children is being properly managed, his psychosis is under control and he doesn香蕉视频直播檛 fit the definition of a high-risk accused, his lawyer said Thursday.

Rishi Gill told a British Columbia Supreme Court judge that Allan Schoenborn, 49, is being properly managed in a psychiatric facility and he doesn香蕉视频直播檛 fit the definition of high risk, despite significant anger-management issues.

香蕉视频直播淭here is nothing in the anger situation that takes him out of the regular stream. It香蕉视频直播檚 the psychosis risk that puts him into the high-risk. And that psychosis is under control,香蕉视频直播� Gill said.

香蕉视频直播淲hat happens when his behaviour deteriorates, even under mental-health criteria? He is managed properly within that scheme.香蕉视频直播�

Schoenborn was convicted of first-degree murder in 2010 for killing his daughter and two sons, but found not criminally responsible because of a mental disorder. His case gained notoriety again when former prime minister Stephen Harper singled him out when he introduced a law creating the high-risk designation for mentally ill offenders.

The Crown has asked the court to designate Schoenborn a high-risk accused, which would bar him from receiving escorted outings into the community and extend the time between his review board hearings from one to three years.

Gill said his client may be 香蕉视频直播渁 jerk,香蕉视频直播� but the high-risk accused label doesn香蕉视频直播檛 fit his client.

香蕉视频直播淗e is just a disagreeable personality who has a lot of problems with conflict management. Nobody is saying otherwise,香蕉视频直播� Gill said. 香蕉视频直播淲hat we香蕉视频直播檙e saying is, does he get to that next level?香蕉视频直播�

Crown attorney Wendy Dawson told the court Thursday that Schoenborn appears resistant to change.

Gill dismissed the argument as a theory of the Crown, saying Schoenborn香蕉视频直播檚 mental illness is what leads to his dangerous behaviour, but he willingly takes his antipsychotic medication, despite the occasional adverse side effect.

Schoenborn killed his 10-year-old daughter Kaitlynne and sons, Max and Cordon, aged eight and five, in the family香蕉视频直播檚 home in Merritt in April 2008.

The murder trial heard that Schoenborn was experiencing psychosis at the time of the killings and thought he was saving his children from sexual and physical abuse, though no evidence suggested this was the case.

Gill said he does not dispute the 香蕉视频直播渂rutal nature香蕉视频直播� of his client香蕉视频直播檚 offences.

Schoenborn has been at the Forensic Psychiatric Hospital in Coquitlam, B.C., since being found not criminally responsible.

Two years ago the B.C. Review Board gave the director of the facility the authority to grant Schoenborn supervised outings as part of his treatment, though so far none has been granted.

Arguments into whether Schoenborn meets the criteria of a high-risk accused person are expected to wrap up by the end of the week and proceedings on the constitutionality of the legislation are scheduled to begin June 26.
