Li — who has changed his name to Will Baker — killed Tim McLean during a bus trip along the TransCanada Highway near Portage la Prairie in July 2008.

He was found to be not criminally responsible for the murder because of a mental illness — schizophrenia.

The board reviews Baker’s file annually and has ruled he could move out on his own following an updated assessment report that would include conditions for living in the community.
