True there is no longer a security person sitting outside of the house. True the flowers out front are blooming and someone has been in with a broom to give the place a spring cleanup.
But this north Toronto mansion remains not only a gruesome murder scene, it also keeps so many secrets of just what went on in there exactly six months ago.
It was on Dec. 15th, 2017, that Honey and Barry Sherman were found murdered in the pool area of their sprawling home.
And here we are on June 15th with no results. Their killer, or killers, a virtual ghost.
The homicide investigation into this remains a head scratcher — a real who dunnit with way more questions than answers.
Toronto Police seem to have no new information to offer the public in this strange case.
No description of who may have gone into the house on Dec. 13th and pulled off a murder that is believed to have been staged to look like one thing but may have been something else all together.
No update from homicide investigators offering theories of what may have happened in that house.
No reward has been put up to encourage tips.
And despite there being dozens of security cameras in the area, there has been no surveillance images or video evidence released.
Nothing but silence. That is the story.
Police did not comment on this investigation on the six month anniversary. Whatever they are doing in this case, they are keeping close to their vest.
However, the family’s believed to be more than $1 million probe is still very much under way.
“We are actively engaged in our investigation,” legendary lawyer Brian Greenspan said, on behalf of the four Sherman children. “This is unequivocally a double homicide.”
“We want justice for Honey and Barry Sherman,” he added.
A very strange double homicide.
Six months have gone by and whoever is responsible has seemingly vanished. If you recall six months ago, police originally thought this was a murder-suicide scenario but later concluded the billionaire couple were murdered — left hanging from a railing next to the indoor swimming pool.
This determination came from a second autopsy performed by the family hired pathologist, who came to the conclusion the philanthropic couple may have been tied up or bound in the moments before they were slain.
There are so many mysteries in this case but nothing is more mysterious as somebody being able to get in and out of the Sherman house, commit this heinous act without leaving any forensic or physical trail, avoiding getting caught on video and slipping away without a trace.
But that’s where this case is at.
Nowhere.
