I think, at Apotex there were hazmat type suits in stock and were used ..... Did the NW (helper in my eyes) carry a folded suit under his winter coat? It should have been possible. MOO

Absolutely, Apotex would have hazmat type suits available. I do not think Barry did any lab work at home, so it is hard to know if had kept this type of apparel at home.

I didn’t write that D-S Price is female. I’m aware of D-S Gomes’s role.

Detective Sergeant Susan Gomes faced significant criticism from investigative journalists and legal experts for not attending the crime scene immediately following the discovery of Barry and Honey Sherman's bodies in 2017.
Key details regarding this criticism include:

• Absence from the Scene: As the lead homicide investigator assigned to the case, Gomes did not visit the Sherman home while the bodies were still present. Reports indicate she did not physically attend the scene for approximately four days after the discovery.
• Investigative "Botch" Claims: Critics, including retired homicide detectives and the Sherman family’s private investigative team, argued that her absence made it difficult to "follow the evidence" effectively. The early police theory that the deaths were a murder-suicide led to perceived failures in securing the scene, such as missing palm prints and overlooking signs of forced entry like an open window.
• Police Defense: In response to these concerns, a police spokesperson stated that Gomes had "complete confidence" in the detectives who were on-site, specifically Detective Brandon Price. The Toronto Police also defended the decision by noting they aim to limit the number of people entering a crime scene during forensic processing to prevent contamination.
• Timing of Discovery: Her absence from the scene did not become public knowledge for nearly two years, further fueling criticism of the initial handling of the high-profile case.

Despite the criticism, Gomes remained the public face of the investigation until her promotion and reassignment in late 2018.

As for the autopsy, we know she didn't have a positive contribution because it was six weeks before she decided it was a double homicide and not murder suicide. If she had had a positive contribution she wouldn't of come to the wrong conclusions for six weeks

Wondering if the red button to open the glass door to the pool area could be easily accessed, would anybody know what it was for (maybe it could be mistaken for an emergency button)?

Could it also be locked from inside the pool and if so, was it locked at the time of, or shortly after the murders?

The Star saw the Sherman crime-scene and autopsy photos. How could a pathologist and police call it a murder-suicide?

Photos, notes raise new questions about how investigators made their mistaken determination in the Barry and Honey Sherman case.

''There is one door into the swimming pool room. It is at the other end of the room from where the bodies were located. To get into that room you have to walk down a long hallway from the front of the house, and unlock the glass door by pressing a red button (placed there for child safety reasons as part of the municipal building code) that is high on a corridor wall.''

I’ve wondered this, too! I don’t typically access indoor pools…is this a standard feature anyone would recognize if they already had the barest familiarity with pools?

This detail always makes me certain I personally would not have immediately known how to get into the pool room. It suggests familiarity with the home (or a previous tour with a real estate agent). But perhaps these door-opening buttons are normal for indoor pools, hot tubs, etc.

Red buttons are used on power operated doors for a number of things.

Wondering if the $ amount in this particular trust has since been revealed, and if the other, other cousins, the Shechtmans, have received anything from it yet?
Does their mother, Mary S. get some of it, or trying to - (separate from the amount apparently promised to her from HS)? speculation.

Honey Sherman’s family members sue for part of Barry Sherman’s billions

Honey Sherman’s niece and nephew sue the Barry Sherman 2016 trust seeking an accounting and part of a trust he created the year before the billionaire was murdered

www.thestar.com

''One major complication the Shechtman twins say they face is that Barry set up the trust as a “discretionary trust,” meaning that the three trustees (Jonathon Sherman, Alex Glasenberg and Brad Krawczyk) can determine who among the beneficiaries gets what and how much.
The complication, the lawsuit explains, relates to hostility from the four Sherman children to the Shechtman family. As evidence, the lawsuit states that, “Regrettably, following the murders of Barry and Honey Sherman in December 2017, the relationship between the Sherman Siblings and Mary Shechtman, her husband Allen, and the Applicants broke down.”
