Ontario Woman Found Not Criminally Responsible in Mother’s Death
A recent decision by teh Ontario Review Board details the harrowing case of Ms. Campbell, who was found not criminally responsible for the death of her mother on March 22, 2016. The ruling outlines a deliberate and disturbing series of actions captured on closed-circuit television.
According to the Ontario Review Board’s decision, Ms. Campbell was parked in a commercial parking lot when her mother exited the vehicle, utilizing a walker for assistance. Ms. Campbell then drove directly towards her mother at a high speed, resulting in the mother being thrown into the air, landing on the hood of the car, and afterward falling to the ground.
The surveillance footage reportedly showed Ms. Campbell accelerating and reversing over her mother four separate times. Following the repeated impacts, she exited the vehicle, briefly appeared to check on her mother’s condition, and then drove away from the scene.
The Ontario Review Board’s findings indicate that Ms. Campbell was suffering from a mental disorder at the time of the incident,leading to the determination of not criminally responsible. Further details regarding the specific mental health condition and the ongoing review board proceedings have not been widely publicized to protect privacy concerns.
