Murder trial for man accused in Toronto van attack, starts today

BY , Nov 10, 2020 4:32 PM - REPORT AN ERROR

More than two years after he drove down a van down a Toronto sidewalk, killing 10 people and injuring 16 others, Alek Minassian is set to go on trial today.

The judge has said the case will turn on Minassian's state of mind on April 23rd, 2018, not whether he committed the attack, which he has admitted to in court.

The defence is expected to argue Minassian was not criminally responsible for his actions.

Hours after the attack, Minassian told police he had done it as retribution against society, because women would not have sex with him.
