A Brisbane psychiatrist deemed Joel Cauchi “fit and proper” to hold a gun licence in 2021 after finding the schizophrenic man to be “virtually no risk” to others, a court has been told.
Cauchi, 40, fatally stabbed Ashlee Good, 38, Jade Young, 47, Yixuan Cheng, 27, Pikria Darchia, 55, Dawn Singleton, 25, and Faraz Tahir, 30, and injured 10 others at Westfield Bondi Junction on 13 April last year, before he was shot and killed by police inspector Amy Scott.
