The mother of a young man who was beheaded on a Greyhound bus is upset but not surprised that her son's killer has been found not criminally responsible.
Carol deDelley says Vince Li may have been mentally ill when he attacked her son last July, but the fact remains that "a crime was still committed."
DeDelley says the verdict seems to overlook that fact.
DeDelley was commenting after a judge found Li can't be held accountable for killing Tim McLean because Li didn't appreciate that his actions were immoral.
DeDelley says the law needs to be changed so that someone can be found not psychologically accountable, but still criminally responsible for a crime.
She says she and her family will attend annual reviews for Li to try to ensure that he will never be allowed on the streets again.
