A Calgary man accused of murdering his landlord has been sent for a psychiatric assessment that will help determine if he was criminally responsible at the time of the killing.Ryan Kinoshita is charged with second-degree murder in the death of Joel Aaron Clark, 46, who was killed in his McKenzie Towne home in April. A Calgary man accused of murdering his landlord has been sent for a psychiatric assessment that will help determine if he was criminally responsible at the time of the killing.

On Monday, Kinoshita appeared in court. His lawyer, Allan Fay, requested a 30-day forensic examination to see if he meets the criteria for a not criminally responsible defence. A psychiatrist will now prepare an assessment to determine if Kinoshita was suffering psychosis at the time 46-year-old Clark was killed. If the doctor believes he was, it would mean Kinoshita did not understand his actions were morally wrong.
