   Homicide detectives have a ‘person of interest’ in the Barry and Honey   
   Sherman murder investigation   
      
      
   TORONTO -- A person of interest has been identified in the murders of   
   billionaire couple Barry and Honey Sherman, the Toronto Police Service   
   confirmed to CTV News Toronto on Wednesday.   
      
   “The Toronto Police Service can confirm that a person of interest has been   
   identified but not arrested,” Const. Alex Li said in a statement.   
      
   No further details have been released by officials at this time.   
      
   The well-known couple was last seen alive on the evening of Dec. 13, 2017.   
      
   Their bodies were found by realtors touring prospective buyers through their   
   Toronto home, located on Old Colony Road, two days later. They were found in a   
   semi-seated position on the pool deck, hanging by belts from a railing that   
   surrounded their    
   indoor pool.   
      
   The home has since been demolished at the family’s request.   
      
   Police sources initially said the prevalent theory in the case was that it was   
   a murder-suicide. But, about six weeks after their bodies were found, homicide   
   detectives confirmed they believed the couple was targeted and killed.   
      
   The Sherman family hired a team of private investigators to probe the murders.   
      
   On Dec. 16, 2019, the Toronto police and the family released a joint statement   
   saying the private investigation was over. At a news conference held that day,   
   the head of Toronto’s homicide unit Insp. Hank Idsinga reminded the public   
   that the police    
   investigation remained active and asked that anyone with any tips reach out to   
   them directly.   
      
   No arrests have been made in the high-profile case thus far.   
      
   Barry Sherman was the founder of generic drugmaker Apotex Inc. The couple was   
   among Canada’s most generous philanthropists with numerous mul   
   imillion-dollar donations to hospitals, schools and charities.   
      
   The couple’s Toronto home was on the market for $6.9 million at the time of   
   their deaths. They were in the process of building a new home in the city.

   It was obviously a hit job - and likely a very, very pricey one - for the   
   police to have taken this long.   
      
   These are the most likely suspects:   
   _______________   
      
   Possible suspects   
      
   No suspects or persons of interest have as yet been publicly identified. That   
   has not stopped speculation about who might have been responsible,   
   particularly given Sherman's many business associates with criminal records   
   and those who had been angered by    
   his actions. He himself had acknowledged that an attempt could be made on his   
   life. "For a thousand bucks paid to the right person, you can probably get   
   someone killed", he told Jeffrey Robinson in an interview for his book in the   
   late 1990s. "Perhaps I'   
   m surprised that hasn't happened."[23]   
      
   At the time of the homicides Sherman had just won a ruling that the Winters   
   owed him $300,000 in legal fees, less than he had asked for, for their   
   lawsuit, itself dismissed three months earlier. After telling Bloomberg that   
   he'd been informed he was a "   
   prime suspect" and consulting with his lawyer, Kerry Winter allowed that he   
   had not only the motive to kill his cousin but the opportunity, since he was   
   working at the time as a construction supervisor and could set his own   
   hours.[17] He admitted to The    
   Fifth Estate that he had imagined killing Sherman but says that he did not,   
   and was watching Peaky Blinders on Netflix, then attending a Cocaine Anonymous   
   meeting that night.[23][a]   
      
   Also mentioned as possibly having a motive to kill Sherman is Frank D'Angelo,   
   given the long history between the two and the latter man's checkered legal   
   history. In his interview with Bloomberg, he said "The worst thing that could   
   have happened to Frank    
   D'Angelo is Barry dying" and expressed regret that he had not been able to   
   save a man he regarded as a close friend. He believed that "somebody came to   
   make Barry an offer he couldn't refuse, and he refused".[17]
