Yes agreed it could be a red herring. But we did learn a number of tidbits:
Like that Brad, the son-in-law was the requestor for secrecy to protect his family. We do not know if he was the sole person who was afraid, he did not come from a family with money like Alex did, maybe upon learning his wife would receive 1/4 of multiple millions (she was over 25 first payment threshold) and the fear in the family at that time they were fighting TPS to see it as a double murder and not murder-suicide and did not have any suspects, the list goes on.
It was surprising for me to hear reports that she and her husband separated. It saddened me, I am sure Alex needs to be well supported and around people she can trust at this time so soon after the deaths.
Then when we heard from her brother himself that she considered he could be involved in their parent's deaths.
Now we know Brad was on the last will as a trustee, got to wonder how much he knows of inside interactions, and is he afraid of someone?
We also learned that Barry had a plan to ensure Honey never needed anything and would be well taken care of. We learned Honey in fact did not have a personal will, it appears her wishes were covered within Barry's will. As well that he saw his 4 children equally and said just divide by 4. But the last tidbit that was some interesting is that the final payout when they are 35 looks to be the last 1/4 but paid out via trust on an annual basis not a lump sum. That would make me think the other wills that are not public knowledge explain what can and cannot be sold so that what feeds the trust funds goes on and on.
Apotex Canada was for sale, not sure if it still is or not, but other divisions in Europe are sold, canceled, and sold off all the US arm Barry was investing to build and spend hundreds of millions.
If Barry truly had no religion and did not believe in life ever after, when you die that is it you sleep and nothing else, maybe he did not care if it went on without him, free to sell it all to build the trust funds? so I assume this is acceptable as part of Barry's plan.
I also noticed the trust component paid annually was reported by NP, although other MSM simply state the estates were to be equally divided by the four -
“However, the money is to be held in trust until the children reach age 25, when they will receive one-quarter of their inheritance, then one-third upon reaching age 30, the will says. They will receive the full portion at age 35, as an “annual income … for the maintenance, education, advancement in life and benefit of the specified beneficiary.”…”
