Justice Geoffrey Gomery says in his ruling that Webster had suffered from schizophrenia for years and bludgeoned his sleeping mother because he believed family members wanted to kill him and steal the inheritance he had received from his grandmother.
Police quickly arrived in the area and located the two suspects who fled in separate directions. A foot pursuit ensued and one of the suspects allegedly threw a loaded firearm into a bush as he was running from police. The suspect was taken into police custody and the firearm was located.
Investigators say 77-year-old Arnold De Jong and 76-year-old Joanne De Jong were found dead in a home on Monday. A statement from police says it's unclear if the killings were random or targeted.
He was last seen walking away from Richmond General Hospital, in the 7000 block of Westminster Highway, at approximately 7:45 p.m. on May 9th. Pushparj was reportedly very intoxicated when last seen, and family members are growing concerned for his well-being.
