Kingston Psychiatric Hospital!
Arrested and charged on May 5, 2005 with criminal harassment of his wife Leah.
He claimed that his wife and daughter were abducted and replaced by imposters.
From the Toronto Star article: "Thomson also cited Leah Rosato's testimony that her husband destroyed their daughter's doll collection and surrounded the baby with crystals, causing Leah to worry the baby would choke on the crystals. "
He was diagnosed with Capgras Delusion, a delusional misidentification syndrome.
Was found guilty on November 4 of criminally harassing his wife, but Justice Gordon Thomson, presiding over the judge-alone trial in superior court, gave him a conditional discharge. That means Rosato will have no criminal record but will be held at the Kingston Psychiatric Hospital for a period of up to 3 years.
