Son Sentenced for Killing Mother
from Toronto News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Colin Hatcher walked away with a life sentence after brutally murdering his mother, Kathleen, in a shocking attack fueled by schizophrenia and a voice he claimed commanded him to stab her. Despite her years of trying to help him and even meeting him in the park despite his threats, Kathleen was left with multiple wounds before dying. The judge, acknowledging his illness but holding him accountable for knowing right from wrong, sentenced him to 11 years before parole eligibility — less than prosecutors wanted — and urged him to fight for redemption. This is a chilling tale of love, betrayal, and the thin line between mental illness and criminal responsibility. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
