Do I believe with proper medication his symptoms can be controlled and he's not a danger? Possibly.
Do I believe without strict supervision he will follow his medication protocol as perscribed? Not a chance in hell.
From my perspective he's going to need someone checking in on him every day for the rest of his life to make sure he's taking his meds and just as importantly, that they're still effective.

I could be wrong, but I think that's what's happening here. I think he's getting a few "day passes" here and there, with supervision to make sure he stays on his meds. Or I cuold be wrong, I didn't really read the article.
