    It's pretty rare also NOT TO HAVE SECURITY CAMERAS ALL OVER YOUR HOME WHEN YOU THINK PEOPLE ARE OUT TO GET YOU.

    Billionaires with no security cameras in the house? Whole thing sketchy 😮
  • @leanderrowe2800
    Barry Sherman sued literally everyone including the police department, their house builder, and over 1,000 cases just against the government, not to mention his business lawsuits and the very controversial lawsuit by his cousins claiming that he owed them each 5% of the drug company Apotex when the original owner, Barry's uncle, the then orphaned cousins' father, died.
    Anyone of his enemies, including his own son whom one of Barry's daughter accused him of murdering their father, could have hired the killer or killers.
    This is a case of too many enemies.
  • Five years later and I learn more from Bloomberg than I have from the Canadian media. 🙁
  • From the beginning of the video to the end, one thing is clear how incompetent the police force are. From concluding it was a suicide to releasing video of a guy walking as a suspect four years after.

    Undercutting big pharma, Lobbyists and Members of Parliament insider trading
    ....what could possibly go wrong
  • @Karyabs
    Owning a big pharmaceutical industry is enough reason to have serious security.
  • @dougiep2769
    How do professional investigators miss the signs and call this suicide..that's all you need to know..
  • @ellebelle8515
    Shame on the Toronto Police Department. They have majorly failed in numerous major crime investigations.
  • @jimjohnson9808
    I believe law enforcement knows more than they are letting on.
  • @theotheo7241
    the police rushing into declaring it as a double suicide speaks volume !
  • @leejones7439
    This was a contract hit. The cops know more than they are saying. This will go unsolved, just like the Jon Benet Ramsay case.
  • @Jason-rk4nd
    The police officers that deemed this a suicide need to be thoroughly investigated. They took a bribe from someone to do that and that money is somewhere. FIND IT.

    This is why living modest as a billionaire or even a millionaire makes no sense at all.
    With his wealth he should have been able to secure himself and his wife.
    Bodyguards, guns, top security systems......

    One of the Largest suppliers of “Ivermectin”. Nuff said. Go from there.
  • @TwoNote
    Wow, the level of incompetence is astounding. I get that they may have had their reasons for not releasing the footage at first, but who knows should have they released it sooner, maybe someone could have recalled seeing a similar person in the surrounding area.
  • @shortfuze5685
    I remember this story . My immediate gut feeling it was a professional hit. Or a family member.
