Adam Kai-Ji Lo, Accused in Vancouver’s Lapu Lapu Day Attack, Pleads Not Guilty
Justice Kathleen Ker set a five-week voir dire after Kai-Ji Adam Lo denied the charges in the Vancouver festival attack case.
On Monday, Kai-Ji Adam pleaded not guilty to all 42 charges, including 11 counts of second-degree murder, during a Supreme Court appearance in Vancouver.
Lo is alleged to have driven an SUV into a crowd at the Lapu-Lapu Day Festival in East Vancouver on April 26, 2025, killing 11 people.
Found fit to stand trial last year, Lo elected a judge-only trial after his case was moved to Supreme Court earlier this year.
Justice Kathleen Ker declared a voir dire following the plea to consider evidence admissibility, with proceedings scheduled to run for five weeks.
The Supreme Court trial is set for April 19, 2027, while a publication ban remains in place regarding pretrial process details.
The man accused of killing 11 people in an attack on the baby vehicle during the Lapu-Lapu festival in Vancouver pleaded not guilty to the 42 counts against him.
