## Resource

Allan Schoenborn, who murdered his three young children 18 years ago, is seeking a one-year conditional discharge — a move that could pave the way to freedom — despite ongoing concerns from victim advocates who say he’s not engaging in treatment, hasn’t sought employment, and has a history of institutional care and violence. Now legally known as Ken John Johnson, Schoenborn recently appeared before the B.C. Review Board, where his psychiatrist spoke and he urged the public to be more understanding of his “progress.” He’s also been granted unescorted leave from his facility without incident, though he apologized for past outbursts. The board’s decision looms — and the stakes are impossibly high. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
