MONTREAL — A Quebec man who killed his mother and a neighbour in a suburb west of Montreal last year has been found not criminally responsible for the crimes.
A Superior Court judge made the decision Monday in the case of 45-year-old Fabio Puglisi, who also seriously injured a third person during a stabbing spree in Vaudreuil, Que., in February 2024.
Puglisi had been charged with second-degree murder in the killings of his 68-year-old mother Elisabetta Puglisi-Caucci and 53-year-old Manon Blanchard, who lived in the same condo tower as the mother and son.
He was also charged with attempted murder in an attack on a 70-year-old woman who survived.
