"That speaks loudly to the absence of a major mental disorder. It would not suddenly occur at this juncture point." Skibicki has pleaded not guilty to four first-degree murder charges in the deaths of three First Nations women — Rebecca Contois, 24, Morgan Harris, 39, and Marcedes Myran, 26 — and an unidentified woman community leaders have given the name Mashkode Bizhiki'ikwe, or Buffalo Woman, who police have said they believe was an Indigenous woman in her 20s.

Chaimowitz also noted in his report that it was only sometime after Skibicki's arrest and police interview that he started talking about getting messages from God, "along with what could have been constructed as auditory and visual hallucinations as well as grandiose delusions."Winnipeg serial killer told shelter worker 'he was just there to stalk his victims,' trial hears
