Li Granted Day Passes!

Vince Li the Greyhound bus slayer has been grated day passes to travel from the Selkirk Mental Health Centre starting on May 24. The Manitoba review board concluded that Li’s current condition does not render him a threat to society.

Li was found not criminal responsible after he beheaded a fellow passenger near Portage Manitoba. A judge found that at the time of the attacks Li was experiencing hallucinations from untreated schizophrenia. Since 2008 Li has be confined to the Selkirk Mental Health Facility.

Li is now able to go on one to one supervised day trips into the Lockport and Selkirk area as well as the city of Winnipeg. When Li is outside of the hospital grounds he will be supervised by a security guard and a member of the hospital staff that will be equipped with a two way radio or a cell phone.  

Li has also been given more lenience on the hospital grounds where he will be granted unsupervised passes of up to 15 minutes and increasing to a full day upon good behaviour.
