Will Barry & Honey Sherman's murders ever be solved? Two new true crime podcasts shine a new light

- More than five years have passed since the still-unsolved murders of Canadian Jewish philanthropists Barry and Honey Sherman in their Toronto home. Despite a $35-million reward for clues to solve their killing, the case remains a mystery.
Conspiracy theories abound over who did it and why, with fingers being pointed at the Clintons, Big Pharma, the Sherman children, a cousin or even the Mossad. Police haven’t released any clues in more than a year.
But interest is about to heat up again as two major Canadian news outlets give the story the true-crime treatment, each releasing podcasts about the Shermans-this same month.
The two shows take very different approaches. One is hosted by Kevin Donovan, the Toronto Star reporter who broke most of the Sherman case and wrote a book about it; the other, produced by the CBC, is hosted by Jewish journalist Kathleen Goldhar. She has produced previous hit shows about a romance scammer, and the NXIVM cult that ensnared two Bronfman sisters.
Today, Kevin Donovan joins to why he has been pursuing the case for years and whether either of these competing shows actually provide closure to the unsolved mystery.

Excellent interview with this man. I thoroughly enjoyed this. I've been fascinated by the Sherman case since it happened. It's such a shame the police misdiagnosed it initially, because that was the time frame the murderers needed to, in my opinion obviously, needed to get out of the country.
I have been perplexed about the murders of Honey and Barry Sherman.
I recall that there was a close political involvement related to these murders. Recent media does not refer to this issue, however the timing of the murders with a federal election in the making and current election interference, it would be interesting to know if there is any truth in this speculation.
Keep coming back to this especially with the Chinese connection to the Foundation
The one who wears funky socks of 🇨🇦 & Clinton’s 😉 it was a sacrifice
You mean the illegal fundraiser held by the Sherman’s that would have disqualified Trudeau from running for pm? Barry was about to be questioned? Can’t ? a dead man.
Kevin Donovan is solving crimes instead of the police Why can he follow clues and not police Without Kevin, Nathaniels killing would still be blamed on his grieving parents
He is CSIS
Government pays cbc big money. Hum?
I'll have to buy this book.
Latest Donovan Tor Star article shows how disfunctional and mean spirited the Sherman family is.
Kevin Donavan has done some absolutely outstanding investigative journalism on this case. I have just finished season 2 of the billionaire murders podcast and it was great! I was left with a couple of questions though.. Maybe some of this stuff is left out intentionally to avoid lawsuits from a new billionaire murder suspect..
#1 You sort of brush past that Alexandra is separated from her husband, and I do realize this is peoples personal lives as well, but that seems somewhat significant considering the events over the past few years (Alexandra suspecting Jonathan, Jonathan dismantling Barry's empire in multiple ways that he would likely not have respected/condoned, and Brad being intertwined in this being one of the Sherfam board members). Was any investigation done into Brads involvement in any of this (Alexandra's suspicion of her brother, firing Jack Kay unceremoniously, selling apotex to an american company). It may seem nitpicky but its a major part of the story considering the many reasons to be suspicious for Jonathan already, his supposed love and admiration for his father - yet doing everything exactly the opposite of respectful. If there was no other reason to suspect him it would still seem odd to profess your admiration whilst simultaneously doing everything possible to tarnish his name.. (Apotex was obviously the number 1 most important thing to barry, keeping it canadian was probably tied, Jack Kay was not just a decades long employee but a best friend)
#2 I can understand the need to protect your sources - but I think you should release more information regarding Alexandra's suspicions of her brother. It seems massively significant considering that Jonathan was a suspect in the public eye well before she thought so, as well as being one of the few people on the inside to see his mindset after the fact and hear some of the reasoning behind the moves he has made. It doesn't seem like anyone would be exposed if you provided her supposed reasoning behind it - considering Jonathan already knows about it anyways. His explanation about 'him having guns' was clearly an attempt to make the sister sound like the crazy one and him sound like the reasonable one, particularly how he makes sure to mention her fiance/husband/ex-husband? also had similar guns. It seems as though that's not the real reason, or maybe only part of the reason. I would suspect it was more likely things he said..
Hey Kev! Do you think there's any ANY any possibility it has to do with all the workers who built the house at 50 Old Colony Road? They were NOT paid after old Barr sued everyone for ... taking too much time .... not performing to agreed on standards ... using materials that were not up to scratch ... showing up late ... and ... I'm sure he found other reasons. When it was all added up, the builders were in the red.
Someone they know was was waiting inside for them to open the door logically the killer was very very known for them
This was not a business-based hit. Someone close to the Shermans, perhaps even someone named Sherman, ordered it.
Interestingly is there is many podcasts
Disgusting the way the Sherman kids treated their Aunt.
She was a free loader. She was given millions. Where is that money?
This answered nothing.
So
many years and nothing new why maybe money doesn’t let crack this case
The Sherman has open the door to somone they know.
Someone they know was waiting inside to open the door
Someone they know was waiting inside them open the door
Follow the money.
Correcting mistakes ,sure
I want to hear Jonathan s voice
lol, ptsd....
You missed one.
No rest
Barry Sherman and the ivermectin connection.. could make a movie about it
We would love to know more about this connection
Ask Mr Trudeau how much money he owed the Sherman’s
You do realize Barry Sherman died years before the pandemic, don't you?
justin did it
Your crazy The son did it
@@lauriemccreary6744why would the son do it? Zero motive since he already had everything he wanted handed to him and also he pushed the police to keep investigating
More reason to speak
I care about the case, not this guys motives for covering the case. Yawn.
Not really
He knows the son did it. Why wont he just admit it. All he has to say imo and then he's clear from any lawsuits.
No, he doesn't.
@lane99 yes, he does.
No, he doesn’t.
I’m not clear on why the son would do it. Also he was the one pushing the police to keep investigating after they initially called it a murder suicide. Why would he do that if he killed his own parents?
@@oxfordpictionary I can you give millions $$$ of reasons why he would do it. It was his sisters that were pushing for the investigation, so he just went along with it because he would look pretty bad if he didn't.
when things like this occur the motif is always money...who bennefits from this... and why don't they show the post mortempictures. fragments or total?
Well, that’s rich calling the other podcast an “attempt” when it hadn’t even dropped at the time of this interview. Hard to listen to any of this, tbh, since his ego kept getting in the way.
Why it takes so many years I think no perfect murders today i sent o lot of tips to crime stoppers on 2 februar 2022 that can be usefull for the crime but i lost contacts check the tips maybe I m right but i don’t want blame no one without a reason there are a lot of eksperts to prove it
More like muffled voices
Ukraine!!!
Six years and a reward for $35 M and not a single person in jail. Why? Murder-suicide.
You can’t kill yourself by strangling yourself with a belt while sitting down
Start by asking mr Trudeau he knows the answer it’s him
