Lance Littlewolfe is charged with second-degree murder in the death of 24-year-old Daxon Hornick-Schmidt. Sask. Courts photo A lawyer for a man accused of murder is filing an application to have his client deemed Not Criminally Responsible (NCR) by reason of a mental disorder. On July 26, North Battleford lawyer Andrew Lyster told Lloydminster Provincial Court that defence was filing a 672.11 order for 35-year-old Lance Dwayne Littlewolfe. Lyster said that they are waiting for a hospital bed to become available at the Saskatchewan Hospital psychiatric unit in North Battleford. If someone is deemed NCR by reason of a mental disorder this means they admit the actions but not the crimes. An NCR verdict results in no jail sentence and is as if no crime has been committed.
