BBM above,
LE has to have sufficient evidence to convict before laying charges. We heard way back in 2019 that LE had already had consultations with the Crown. In court KD has often mentioned that LE does not want to hand over info because they don't want the perp to know they're onto him, etc. Showing the NW, who knows, maybe that IS a publicly shared way of stressing the perp - imagine if you'd hired a hitman, and then actually see him on video, and know police are looking for him and have now put his walking video out to the world, and are calling him a 'suspect' as opposed to a POI or a person that may have seen something? I'd sure be feeling pressure, if I'd hired him! I think when LE did release that video, if one reads between the lines, it seems to me that LE may believe there is someone else pulling the nightwalker's strings, imo. This case may be much more intricate than we can imagine, imo.:
Price said he could not exclude anybody with 100 per cent certainty, because even if a person was ruled out as the person in the video, that person could have been involved in some way.
The inside story of how Toronto police zeroed in the Sherman murder ‘suspect’ with the odd gait
Note that this article below was written around the time when the family dismissed their private investigation team and became united with TPS, the tip line was shut down, all tips were asked to be REsent to TPS, etc. I'm not sure at which point the daughter, AS became convinced her brother had something to do with the murders? Possibly around the same time? JS reported that to KD approx one year later when he gave his first interview, but who knows how long it had been going on?:
Asked by the Star if a crown attorney had been consulted — which sometimes occurs if police are considering charges or have a particularly difficult search warrant request to formulate — Yim replied that one had been consulted by homicide detectives on the case. Yim would not say why.

I think AK found something out in 2019, imo, that made her suspicious or confirmed her suspicions.
-2019 JS hired his own investigator. AK and sisters wanted to disband the Greenspan team and give their information to the Toronto police. JS opposed disbanding the team and AK had to hire her own lawyer to do so.
-December, 2019, the Greenspan team was disbanded.
-2020, JS was not involved with the family business meetings despite being part of the succession team and a global pandemic was raging. (JS said he was not invited, Sherfam executive AG said that he was.)
-November 25, 2020, police announced they have a POI.
-November 27, 2020, police clarified they have several POIs.
-December, 2020, JS gave his first interview to KD, a person JS previously described as his ‘MO’ (‘main opponent’). He told KD that AK suspects him, and tries to explain why he didn’t repay his father back the 50-60 million.
Interesting... is JS a successful businessman? What were figures like for his company before the murders compared to years after the murders?
If you are running a successful profitable business why are you having your father pay for your surrogacy? Was this a legit? Did BS want to do it out of the goodness of his heart because he too went through the process himself? Or something else? Leverage of some sort...
I know in Ontario you get one free IVF cycle once in your lifetime or under age 43. Surrogacy in Canada does not cost that much. I mean a round of IVF cost 11,000K plus the 5-8,000$ in medications plus yearly storage fees for embryos and specialized tests etc. one round of that is not even close to 300,000K plus. WTH I could be incorrect but I think the price is way too high.
300,000K plus the 17,000$ amount BS sent the day he died. Crazy thought - what if BS had enough of forking the bill and gave his last payment the day he died? What if this was a scam just to get money out of BS? I mean 300,000K plus extra monies for one surrogacy or many? Where is the paper trail? Audit of the surrogacy company and BS payments?
Killing your cash cow does not make logical sense unless you requested those funds under false pretenses and your scam was figured out. (My brain talking out loud).
Here's an odd ball question - did the Sherman's donate to foreign institutions, charities, government run programs, specific grants, non-profit or religious groups?
As a potential recipient of a massive estate, I would not want all of my potential money going out the door unless to a worthy cause and these days there is one around every corner. So maybe someone got tired of their potential inheritance being mismanaged (in their eyes).
BTW I cannot access every link so I get information for you guys and gals. Cheers
-JS was entirely funded by his father. We don’t know how successful he was prior to the murders, but if you look at just the last days prior to the murders, JS asked BS for $300k+, 17k+, 6.2 million, and another undisclosed amount. All that after BS gave him hundreds of millions. That may be an indication of his success.
-JS was 34 at the time of the murders. The children were set to inherit amounts at certain ages. His first instalment was set to be when he turned 35.
-JS was one of the first Canadian ‘test tube babies’ and the surrogate was American, but she gave birth here. That may have had something to do with his decision. He had twins.
-BS was excited to have more grandchildren, but didn’t understand the delays or why it was so expensive. No idea why BS paid.
-If BS had lived, he would soon find out AP and JS did nothing to secure mortgages to repay BS. BS needed the funds in January. My opinion is that BS would have called his loans to JS and AP, the way he did when JS was failing with the Steelback brewery BS gave him. I think BS would have been really discouraged and disappointed about them not repaying him as they promised.
-the Shermans donated to many different charities, including Jewish causes.
- In 2015 JS told BS that he was incompetent and mishandling money. He told his sisters they should intervene as they were all ‘shareholders’. The sisters declined.
