B.C. man accused of killing student not fit to stand trial: court


Supreme Court Justice Heather Holmes ruled Friday that Gabriel Klein is currently unfit to stand trial because of his mental state. Outside of court Friday, Klein’s lawyer, Martin Peters, said he is not confident that the case will ever reach trial. The British Columbia Review Board will re-evaluate Klein’s mental fitness within 90 days. Klein’s trial had been set to start May 7. When asked if justice would be served if Klein never went to trial, Peters said it would, because Canada doesn’t allow mentally unfit people to stand trial.
