Trevor Robert Farley, 38, is charged with the first-degree murder of his mother, Judy Swain, and the second-degree murder of his father, Stuart Farley. Both were 73 years old.

The mother’s body was discovered in New Bothwell and that of his father in a house Toronto Street in Winnipeg.

Trevor Farley was an employee of Seven Oaks General Hospital. He was not in office at the time.

He is also charged with attempted murder in connection with a stabbing at Seven Oaks General Hospital on the day his parents were killed.

Search warrants drafted by investigators and recently released detail the events in October 2021 that led to the attacks, as reported by police.

None of the allegations have yet been confirmed by a court.

The course of events, according to the police

According to police documents, on Oct. 26, 2021, Trevor Farley sought help at the Winnipeg Mental Health Crisis Response Center, operated by Shared Health Manitoba.

Search documents searching his car and home indicate he spent the night at the Mental Health Crisis Response Center.

On the day of the murders, just before 9am, Mr Farley’s condition was reassessed and it was decided to take him in for an involuntary examination by a doctor.

A form allowing for a psychiatric evaluation without his consent was filled out. These forms can be used when the patient’s condition does not allow them to give consent or when they are unwilling to do so.

According to the doctor who filled out the form, Trevor Farley had disorganized cognitive abilities, considered himself a prophet, had delusions, heard voices and had suicidal thoughts.

Trevor Farley left the mental health crisis response center at around 11:45 a.m., about three hours after the form was filled out, police said.

Center staff then, in accordance with established procedures, notified 911 and Trevor Farley’s wife if a patient covered by the form leaves the hospital before being examined.

Staff tried to intervene, but he continued toward Arlington Streetnoted the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) officer.

Trevor Farley’s wife, meanwhile, was phoning Judy Swain, who was at her home in New Bothwell, to find out if she had heard from her son when she suddenly heard Mrs Swain screaming. She too heard a voice cry out trevor several times, according to the agent’s document RCMP.

Then Trevor Farley’s wife called RCMP Help. Dispatched officers discovered Judy Swain’s body in the garage.

In attempting to trace his actions after leaving the response center, police believe Trevor Farley first went to his father’s Toronto Street home, where Stuart Farley was found dead later that evening.

He would then have gone to his mother, and after killing her, he would have gone to Seven Oaks Hospital, where he was a nurse. He is accused of stabbing his boss 14 times.

He was arrested by the police the same day.

He tried to get treatment earlier

Two days before he left the Mental Health Crisis Response Center, he had been denied access to the same center because no bed was available. He should go to the hospital instead, Farley’s wife told police.

He then went to the Health Sciences Center but left before he was seen by a doctor, a Winnipeg police officer said in a separate search warrant application.

He then went to St. Boniface Hospital, where he was prescribed medication and a pharmacist asked that the dose be lowered, according to the records.

Trevor Robert Farley’s trial is set for October 2023.
