Barry and Honey Sherman were killed in their Toronto home Dec. 13, 2017. There was no sign of forced entry, little DNA evidence, and the couple were found about 36 hours after their deaths. Barry was 75 and Honey was 70, and although Honey had a slight injury on her face, a forensic pathologist concluded that both died of “ligature neck compression”.
To be fair, the Sherman murders were anything but straightforward. Although it appears the Shermans were the victims of a targeted hit, the exact way they were killed — strangled instead of shot — felt personal. The Shermans’ wealth would suggest someone was in it for the money.
Police released video footage of what could be the killer on his way to the scene of the crime. In the video, there’s snow on the ground and all else appears quiet on the residential street not far from the Sherman home where the man was captured with security camera footage walking down the sidewalk. Sometime later, police say the camera spotted the man again, walking back the way he came. The way that the mysterious man appears in the Sherman neighborhood, leaves, and then seems to fall off the radar has helped feed a common theory that he could have been a contract killer from overseas who fled Canada right after the murders.
To this day, the murders remain unsolved,according to an affidavit sworn by investigators.
