Toronto Police Service released a statement on Tuesday and provided footage of a suspect in the murder of local billionaires Barry and Honey Sherman.
Just over four years ago today, the Shermans were killed by what was determined to be "ligature neck compression, or strangulation that occurs as the result of a rope or some other sort of ligature being wrapped around the neck.
In the statement, police released a video of a person identified as a suspect in this case.
"Since December 2017, the investigative team has taken numerous steps to identify the person on the video, including:
- requesting video analysis of law enforcement partners such as the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Ontario Provincial Police
- the TPS Forensic Video Analysis Unit conducting Forensic Photogrammetry experiments
- obtaining judicial authorization to collect data from nearby cell phone towers
- neighbourhood witness canvasses for information."
The statement continues to say that the efforts "have not resulted in the positive identification of the person in the video."
"We have remained steadfast in our commitment to bring closure to the Sherman family, their friends, loved ones and the community," said Detective Sergeant Brandon Price, lead investigator from Homicide.
"Through our investigation, we have determined that this individual’s purpose in the neighbourhood is unexplained. The timing of his appearance is in line with when we believe the murders took place. Based on this evidence, we are classifying this individual as a suspect. It is our hope that someone will come forward with a name when they recognize the individual’s walk, the way in which they kick up their right foot with every step, knowing that the person was or is connected to the Sherman family or the area on that day, at that time."
Anyone who may recognize this person is asked to contact the investigative team at 416-808-7400, shermantips@torontopolice.on.ca or anonymously at Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416-222-TIPS (8477), online at www.222tips.com, online on our Facebook Leave a Tip page, or text TOR and your message to CRIMES (274637).
