Hayman worked at Royal Victoria Regional Health Centre. The College of Physicians and Surgeons issued a statement saying one of Hayman's bail conditions prohibits him from practising medicine.

Coughler was a nurse at Mackenzie Health, a hospital in Richmond Hill.

A court document alleges Hayman didn’t provide the necessities of life to Coughler while she was in “destitute circumstances” sometime between Jan. 28 and Jan. 30.

Hayman is also accused of failing to seek medical attention, allegedly causing his wife’s death.
