Man beheads, eats fellow passenger

the passes will start at 30 minutes and increase incrementally to a maximum of full days.
Li (44) was found not criminally responsible for the July 2008 death of 22-year-old Tim McLean, a carnival worker who was sitting next to Li on a bus.
At Li’s trial in March of 2009, a judge was told that he was an untreated schizophrenic who was suffering from auditory hallucinations commanding him to kill McLean, a stranger.
On Thursday, the board said the passes should only be granted if Li’s treatment team believes his condition is stable and that it would be ‘appropriate and safe for him to leave the locked ward.’
He will have to be escorted at all times by a nurse and a peace officer who will be wearing street clothes to avoid drawing attention to Li.
“It’s terrible. It’s disgusting”’ Nadine McLean, the victim’s stepmother, said Thursday after she learned about the decision.
“It’s kind of a waste going to the review board every year when he’s going to get whatever he asks for.”
Carol DeDelley, the victim’s mother, also called the board’s decision unacceptable and vowed to continue her efforts to fight the law dealing with people found not criminally responsible.
“If he’s doing well in a controlled environment with regularly administrated medications, leave him there . . . but freedom for him? I don’t think that should ever be an option,’ she said.
On July 30, 2008, Li was sitting on a Greyhound bus headed to Winnipeg next to McLean. The young man had his eyes closed and was listening to music on his headphones when Li suddenly stood up and started stabbing him.
Li then beheaded McLean and started parading up and down the bus brandishing the man’s severed head.
As the bus ground to a halt and horrified passengers scrambled to get out, Li continued to stab, mutilate and dismember McLean. Witnesses reported seeing Li eat pieces of the man’s body and lick blood from his fingers. When police arrived on the scene, Li attempted to escape from the bus by breaking through a window, at which point he was arrested, according to the Winnipeg Free Press. — Daily Mail
