A 24-year-old Canadian actor and former "Riverdale" star charged with murdering his mother also allegedly plotted to kill Canadian Prime Minister Justice Trudeau in March 2020, prosecutors claimed during ongoing sentencing hearings this week expected to wrap up Wednesday.

Ryan Grantham, who played Jeffery Augustine in the hit CW series, has already admitted to shooting and killing his mother, 64-year-old Barbara Waite, in the back of the head while she played piano inside their townhouse in the community of Squamish in British Columbia on March 31, 2020.

Prosecutors revealed this week that the day after killing his mother, Grantham allegedly packed his vehicle with three guns, ammunition, 12 Molotov cocktails, camping supplies and a map with directions to Rideau Cottage in Ottawa, CBC reported. He allegedly set out driving east with the intention of traveling some 50 hours by car to ultimately kill Trudeau. But he ended up turning around near Hope and contemplated committing an act of mass violence at Simon Fraser University instead, prosecutors claimed.

In the months before the killing, both psychiatric reports note Grantham had "cannabis use disorder," as well of escalating feelings of self-hatred, depression and urges to commit violence and kill himself. He also experienced intense guilt fearing his mother would find out he stopped attending classes at Simon Fraser University and was smoking a lot of marijuana.

Some people who use marijuana will develop marijuana use disorder, meaning that they are unable to stop using marijuana even though it's causing health and social problems in their lives. One study estimated that approximately 3 in 10 people who use marijuana have marijuana use disorder.

Yeah I got hit with that something fierce a few months back. I cut it off cold turkey in March, but the cravings are so insidious.
There was no murder thoughts or anything, but it made me paranoid af

And nowhere on there does it mention it CAUSING psychological problems. They are describing addiction.

This lawyer is trying to use the Reefer Madness defense. What an idiot.

I'm not trying to say that it can't cause mental issues, it can. It's known. Especially amongst younger people. But the "disease" he's saying doesn't actually cause it.

The causal relationships in addiction are always ambiguous.
Did this guy go crazy because he smoked too much weed, or did he smoke too much weed because he's crazy?

Wtf is your point?

Weed does not and never has made anyone a murderer. Thats literally the dumbest take you could come up with.

Edit-not counting drug trafficking related murders and thefts and shit.

Yeah maybe because the war on drugs is an idiotic and tragic failure thats a lost cause and done exponentially more harm than good.

Why are you so angry? You remind me of a cigarette smoker complaining about anti-smoking PSAs. Maybe when you're so heavily involved with a substance, you can't see or acknowledge the ill effects?

Pretty sure its been documented that weed can exacerbate existing mental illness or bring dormant mental illness to an active state.

Sounds more to me like he had psychological issues in general and any substance abuse would have been bad news for him.

Can't really blame the weed here, but I see TC is dead set on being disingenuous.

More reason to highly regulate it and only allow the medicinal version be used under doctors supervision.
