Moose provided a good link with lots of info in this Message 18. Here it is again below.

I hope he gets some help and meds, but if the legal system in Canada is the same as here then he will probably fall through the cracks and get a little jail time or maybe just probation. Jails here are full of crazy people who receive minimal mental health treatment. A lot of homeless people have mental problems, these same problems that keep them from being able to hold a job and lead a normal life also end up putting them in jail or prison, although it seems DM has held a job. It is truly sad that it took so long for police to act, and now that they have he may still not get the help he needs.
I feel sorry for whoever might have to share a cell with him.

16 Charges and a mental evaluation
quote:
The Montreal man who had been wanted by police for allegedly making online death threats against people all over the world appeared in court on Friday to face 16 charges.
Known online as David Mabus, Dennis Markuze of St. Laurent has been charged with uttering death threats and for criminally harassing seven victims.
Two charges were laid against him Wednesday -- and an additional 14 were added on Friday.
Markuze has been sent for a 30-day psychological evaluation at Montreal’s Pinel Institute and will appear in court again on Sept. 19.

Well at least he might get some help.
