Immigration: Superior Court Judge

Eastbound Train Dept: Early Tuesday, in reply to a question from prosecutor Marg Creal, Mr. De Oliveira’s lawyer, Ian Kostman, stood and told Ontario Superior Court Judge Nancy Backhouse that “This is not a whodunit; identification is not an issue.”, according to Globe And Mail. He is pleading not guilty to three counts of attempted murder and three of assault; Mr. Kostman has the onus of showing that Mr. De Oliveira isn’t criminally responsible by virtue of his as yet-unspecified mental health issues and there is now no question that, about 19 months ago, on a February Friday the 13th, a then 47-year-old man named Adenir De Oliveira pushed two teenage boys, and tried to push a third, into the path of an eastbound train at the Dufferin subway station. The sole question to be determined by the judge, who is sitting without a jury, is whether Mr. De Oliveira was so mentally ill when he pushed the boys that he was incapable of appreciating what he was doing or that it was wrong. As reported in the news.
