The attack occurred at 1:20 a.m. at a house at 11 Butler Crescent during a party. De Grood, an invited guest, obtained a large knife from the kitchen and began his minute of terror, methodically stabbing 5 people. All of whom had multiple stab wounds.
The victims were Zackariah Rathwell, 21; Jordan Segura, 22; Kaitlin Perras, 23; Josh Hunter, 23; and Lawrence Hong, 27.
On May 25, 2016, de Grood was found not criminally responsible for the homicides, even though he was charged with five counts of first-degree murder.
According to his lawyer, Allan Fay, he intentionally killed the five victims, but believed they were werewolves and vampires who threatened his life.
In September 2019, Matthew de Grood was granted unsupervised outings by the Alberta Review Board, although they say that he "remains a significant risk to the safety of the public."
In September 2020, de Grood's treatment team recommended that with his doctor's approval he be given additional freedoms which could see him transitioned into a 24-hour supervised group home.
Not sure if this will pick up any steam here as the case has been cold since 2014 and CPS are reluctant to release any details. The victims are husband and wife Don and Roxanne Carlson. There's seemingly little evidence aside from a single grainy photo and two police sketches. It seems like an odd case as the husband managed a small coin collecting business named "Albern Coins". The family believes this was a targeted attack.

Been a depressed housing market here for years, while the rest of the country has boomed.
Any homeowners (like me) considering selling giving the recent surge in prices and demand?
