Like I get where you are coming from and I'm sure it has crossed his mind, but you have to remember he didn't choose to do any of that and the outcome, while horrific was not really in his control or his fault.

The review board will have input from all his psychologists and nurses etc. and they will make the right choice, if a medicated de Grood is deemed safe to live in society then why shouldn't he.
for starters, he wants an absolute discharge, which means NO conditions.
I sure as heck wouldn't trust he continues to take his medications on his own.

plus he didn't even qualify for a conditional discharge as recently as 2021.
"Crown prosecutor Matthew Griener said the board considered a conditional discharge but dismissed it, citing a relapse in schizophrenia symptoms in 2021."

If he's relapsing in the hospital, I sure as #### don't want him free in public without conditions.

I've seen to many mentally ill people decide to quit taking medications over the years to trust someone not to relapse, especially when they've already killed multiple people. This time the good of society should be put ahead of what the individual wants.
