#StarInvestigation: Barry Sherman owed $1 billion and was not going to pay, police documents reveal.
thestar.com/news/gta/2022/…
The Toronto Star has won court-approved access to police investigative documents in the 4-year-old Barry and Honey Sherman murder case. The Star reveals what the children, friends and business associates of the Shermans told detectives in their interviews.
thestar.com/news/gta/2022/…
There’s an old saying in homicide investigations, “there are no secrets in a murder case,” something made abundantly clear in police documents newly unsealed by the court.
thestar.com/news/gta/2022/…
The files, a collection of interview statements and police theories, also shed new light on Honey’s sister’s belief that the couple was murdered for religious reasons.

Brad Krawczyk, who is married to Sherman daughter Alexandra, works for Sherfam, Barry’s holding company. He told detectives “Barry seemed quiet lately, but not sad despite losing a total of about a billion dollars in lawsuits in the last three months.”
thestar.com/news/gta/2022/…
As the Star has previously reported, there was a cash crunch in late 2017, and Barry was looking for ways to pay numerous settlements.

With court-approved access to police documents, information is being released chronologically. The Star reported last week that by summer 2021 the hope of catching a killer through phone tracking failed, leading to the release of the “walking man” video. thestar.com/news/investiga…

Toronto’s first-ever mental health crisis response teams — without police — to launch in March.

The teams will dispatch nurses and mental health support workers instead of officers to respond to 911 calls about people in crisis.

Story by @nadineyousif_ thestar.com/news/gta/2022/…
The Community Crisis Support Service teams are the first of their kind in the province. They were approved unanimously by City Council last February. thestar.com/news/gta/2022/…
It comes after growing protests against police brutality and the death of Regis Korchinski-Paquet, an afro-Indigenous Toronto woman who died in police presence during a mental health crisis call in May 2020. thestar.com/news/gta/2022/… Image

They’re ‘floppy’ and don’t fit: Parents want to know why Ontario sent children adult-sized masks dlvr.it/SHR7wH
Reports from parents and teachers around the province describe the masks as ill-fitting and cheaply made — essentially useless according to medical experts. thestar.com/news/gta/2022/…
If a mask “doesn’t fit properly, it’s useless,” pediatrician @DrDinaKulik told the Star. It’s “important to have a well-fit mask that’s touching all areas of the face.” thestar.com/news/gta/2022/…

As Torontonians burrow out from under a once-in-a-decade snowfall this week, thousands of residents who use on-street parking spaces are in a similar bind.
thestar.com/news/gta/2022/…
Some believe there’s an unwritten rule that a spot belongs to whoever clears it, while others argue once a space is snow-free it’s fair game for anyone. thestar.com/news/gta/2022/…
While the issue has been known to spark confrontations between storm-addled neighbours, the city confirmed that on-street spaces are first-come, first-serve, and municipal officials are calling for neighbourly co-operation to help keep the parking peace.

With Omicron cases high, and students making their return to in-person learning, some parents are troubled by suggestions about how the children should eat lunch.
thestar.com/news/gta/2022/…
Amid the confusion of students returning to school as COVID cases surge, Lisa Petsinis said she’s troubled by a suggestion from her daughter’s school about lunchtime: that kids briefly remove their masks to take a bite to eat and put them back on to chew. thestar.com/news/gta/2022/…
Premier Doug Ford and the chief medical officer of health said the move to online school for two weeks was to allow for greater safety measures, including more HEPA filters, rapid tests, N95 masks for staff and more vaccine doses for teachers and students. thestar.com/news/gta/2022/…
