^^^ Wow

Interviewer, "Did you think perhaps I should warn Honey, that I should call the police (that Barry wanted her dead)?"

Kerry Winter, "No, I hated her too."

Thing that doesn't add up, if Barry Sherman wanted Honey dead so badly as to hire a hit man back in the 90's, then why did he wait 20 years to follow through on the notion? That doesn't make sense. If the initial plan to kill his wife through the cousin Kerry fell through, then one would think that Barry would simply move to plan B to kill his wife. And for that matter, why the fuck would Barry trust someone like Kerry Winter to organize something like that. By all accounts, Barry Sherman was a bright guy and trusting Kerry Winter with something like organizing the hit would have been the dumbest thing he could have ever done.

The other thing as pointed out in the 5'th estate program is that strangling a person is not the way a hitman would do it. A hit man wants in and out as fast and neatly as possible. Obviously a gun with a silencer comes to mind. Strangling does not seem like a good way to kill someone fast and neat. Especially 2 people. Whoever did this had strong personal motivations. Kerry Winter sure seems like a strong suspect, but who knows. He (Kerry Winter) definitely comes off as a crack pot in that show.

Sherman: I'm suing to get my $100K back. Can't even hire a decent hitman these days.
Judge: You shouldve hired that guy who shot Simon Giannini. That motherfucker got results.
Judgement for the defendant. That is all
We have some really talented professional hitmen in Toronto. Sukh Deo, Simon Giannini, and now the Shermans were all murdered by hired hands. The police don't have a clue who they're looking for!!!

Unless the hitman wanted to make it look like a murder/suicide

They had some expert on the news yesterday, he said cops have no suspects and absolutely no clue who might have done this

Some interesting details about the crime scene. How on earth the police initially concluded murder/suicide boggles my mind. The words "cautiously optimistic " about solving the crime are bandied about. I will believe it when charges are announced.
Do you actually believe that's what the police/investigators thought....ever?
Don't you know how the game is played.
I admire the force for playing dumb in the face of all that media and family criticism.
Actually, cautiously optimistic sounds encouraging,
given the high profile I don't think they want to get expectations high and come up empty.

Second anniversary of the crime. I'm sceptical still of a resolution although I agree the police will hold their cards extremely close until they file charges. Will have to wait and see I guess.

I was surprised by the announcement also, it seemed like such a professional murder and with the time that's passed,
I thought it was going to go unsolved.

Maybe I watch too much tv but at first blush I immediate figured the hit man would be back in Europe right after it. For a murder of someone so high profile, I’d expect they will never solve it.

Still, interesting twist with the bodies posed like their sculptures. Such an odd twist.

My thoughts exactly.

Maybe, but there would have to be two guys perpetrating it. They may be from Hamilton.

If the murders and movement of those bodies happened the way it was portrayed in that video,
the murderers already knew the layout of that house.
You don't kill people like that and waste time placing them so specifically.
Homes like that feel like a maze when you go into them the first time.

If anyone can remember the Airst murders in 1979 where 3 family members were murdered in their Lawrence and avenue road home who were known to be strongly involved in the Zionist movement and has never been solved, I believe Sherman murders will never be solved. IMHO this was a well planned murder on either religious or revengeful grounds.

The chief police detective has just said it was a "targeted hit".
