Richard Edwin, a Toronto man, has been found guilty of first-degree murder of two men in 2022. One of them was 21-year-old Indian student Kartik Vasudev. The other was 35-year-old Elijah Eleazar Mahepath. There was no connection among the three and the two killings took place two days apart. Both victims died from multiple gunshot wounds. Edwin was arrested in 2022 and was charged but he did not plead guilty on the ground of his mental disorder.
Edwin has been diagnosed with schizophrenia since 2010, according to his court records.
