Summary

Scarborough, Canada, 1987. Kenneth Parks walked into a local police station, bleeding from severe cuts on his hands, and confessed to murder. He claimed he was sleepwalking when he drove to his in-laws’ home and stabbed them. What ensued was a case that set a precedent in Canadian law and became a foundational reference for medical professionals. What are you waiting for?
