A toxicologist who testified at the first-degree murder trial for Norbert Budai says there is no way of knowing exactly how much fentanyl he had in his system at the time of the attack, and said it’s possible it was administered to Budai after the attack by paramedics.
Dr. Joel Meyer who testified for the defence Friday said he watched and listened to Budai testify about how much alcohol he said he consumed and how much fentanyl he said he snorted on the day he admitted to setting his ex-wife Henrietta Viski on fire and on the day prior to the attack.
Meyer said there was no way of knowing how much fentanyl there was in Budai’s system because the urine sample taken at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre taken after the attack only detected whether the drug was in his urine, not how much.
It was June 17, 2022 just before 2 pm when Budai admitted he went to the Chester Le Boulevard townhouse where Viski lived with the couple’s three children with a plastic container full of gasoline. When he arrived, he doused her with gasoline and set her on fire. A day later, the 37-year-old died from complications from burns to approximately 80 per cent of her body.
