TORONTO - The man who killed 10 people in Toronto's van attack compartmentalized thoughts of his victims like a pedophile, court heard Monday.
Dr. Scott Woodside, a forensic psychiatrist testifying for the prosecution, said Alek Minassian was able to push out thoughts of his victims like a sexual predator pushing out the harms he would cause to a child.
