Hoping to circle this back to the content of your substack post, Ann.

I’m not sure about what it takes for the police to obtain a warrant, but wouldn’t it have to name the person or persons involved, what information the police are looking for and the basis for the warrant? They couldn’t just go on an information fishing expedition at Sherfam, they’d need to name people? Or can they if the police just want to cover all of what Barry was involved with and Sherfam is an obvious choice?

Jonathon told Kevin Donovan that he had a theory and possible evidence and named three people he thought are involved. If one of them worked at Sherfam, maybe that has something to do with the warrant?

It’s highly unlikely they’re going after the business dealings of known suspects IMO. It looks to me like they are on a fishing expedition. And it’s a very good question about what the law permits. I honestly don’t know.

I was investigating the death of Raheem White. I found out through his mother that the Toronto Police found a belt hanging from a tree where they found his body. Police told Rose that there was a homeless encampment and that Raheem was some loser who was contemplating suicide. But none of his friends or family thought that. I went back and saw the belt hanging from that tree. But I also met a homeless guy named Dave. He said he'd been camping there for the last 4 years and that the tent and encampment belonged to him. Since the belt was left hanging there, I started thinking they never excluded murder as a cause of death. Made me think that Toronto Police could cover for some police officer that killed them by strangulation. That's exactly what made me think of Barry and Honey Sherman and police's lame theory of murder suicide.

My civil lawsuit alleges that on March 1st of 2022 police came to my work to spread rumors. That's because 15 minutes away there was a body found at lakeshore. Police came to my work and spread a rumor that I had something to do with it. But then homicide labelled it a suicide. Made me wonder, since homicide and the missing persons desk are run by the same person, could Hank Idsinga be the one person who had access to child porn? It would make sense why he was so fucking nervous during the fifth estate interview talking about Bruce McArthurs 7th planter pot. Fuck Hank Idsinga. That piece of shit sounds exactly the type of person that Kathleen Goldhar was talking about.

You think I'd be posting on here if the media would shine light on this story? I'll blow up your articles every time I see one. Barry and Honey Sherman had nothing to do with me. But all their story means is that Toronto Police won't keep any of you safe. They'll put a muzzle on me and pretend like they care about victims of violence. Their story is about media companies not wanting to allot power to people that don't look like them. Say I have a mental illness while not running the interview or even asking questions. Because we have a whole society of police sympathizers and citizen snitches running gambit on their version of the "truth". He's mentally ill? Then we'll just victimize him further in a never ending cycle of torment.

You do not even know what courage is. I know the legal system could come for my head just by stating I'm innocent. Susan Gomes is a fucking joke. You think these people are Toronto's finest but put doubt on my name?

For 3 years police want to make constant threats of violence against me. Spread rumors at my workplace and try and falsely incriminate me on some bullshit. You think I'm fucking playing around. This is not a game. I'm the one affected. Not you

I'm really tired of being silenced. I match the fucking description. Fuck what Toronto Police says. After 6 years they have a grainy photo. But the day after the Sherman's were murdered, visiting from Oshawa, you think I wasn't like damn was that cop car following me last night the same neighborhood as Barry & Honey Sherman? The shit was on the news the next day. Yeah it disturbed me

My name is Timothy Wilkie. I am the Sherman walking Man and I am innocent. I filed a civil lawsuit against TPS and allege that they are implicated in the Sherman's murder. They've silently have accused me and continue surveillance on me unjustly. I live at 132 Berkeley Street here in Toronto

Can you explain what you were doing walking around the Shermans' neighbourhood on December 13, 2017?

Expand full comment

At the time I was just doing some photography scouting. Back in 2017 I was a video production student. I forgot my camera but I made my way to Old Colony. I got off from Union station thinking there were big building like downtown there. I was from out of town, as I was going to college at Durham in Oshawa, so I was not familiar with the neighborhood. But a lone police car was following me that night on December 13th. So, I kept my head low to the ground as I was being followed. My red timberland boots left an abrasion on my left foot I believe. So, I walked with a limp. My civil lawsuit explains how I believe I was set up by TPS homicide detective Hank Idsinga, as he recently stepped down from TPS shortly after my lawsuit was filed.

Your story rings a bell to me. I believe you've posted it in other places.

I would hope so. Because it's not like TPS will investigate themselves. It's not like the news media is completely blindsided and will submit to anything the police say without question. I've been fighting to have story heard for at least 3 years now. But the fact is Hank Idsinga falsely posed as my legal representation at my correctional facility in 2011. What he was planning to do with my signature or his "non disclosure agreement" as he called it I'll never know. But you don't think he wasn't going to blackmail me 10+ years later? My recent lawsuit filed likely was the impetus for him retiring early in shame and in fear. Read the Toronto Sun article. He seemed real disgruntled about "all these losers in town" seems like his hand was forced to quite and TPS is embarrassed about something. I have reason to believe I'm somehow related to the Sherman family and I was set up.

And Fuck Webslueths. It's just an online cop shop. Conspiracy theories, like what? Challenge me directly you cowards. It's disgusting they won't believe a person of colour. Kevin Donovan and people like him are just a bunch of privileged white people. All he cares about it his stupid book deal.

You realize that Toronto Police is an organization of several people and individuals right? Kathleen Goldhar from CBC stated that someone within Toronto Police had child porn and was going to blackmail Barry Sherman. So, do you think someone like Hank Idsinga would broadcast his murder plot? Of course the other Toronto HQ Detectives wouldn't listen to me.

I didn't know the Sherman's I never met them and I didn't know where they lived. But that doesn't stop the fact that my mother was adopted and I believe she's related to Mary Schetman. Doesn't change the fact that Barry likely paid for my grandparents cottage after it got struck by lightning.

I've also lived in Ottawa I'm used to cold weather and wearing 3 pairs of hoodies. They said I looked "portly" because of that. I stayed in the Sherman's neighborhood because I was photography scouting for pictures. I doubled back my route just to justify my decision for not getting better of architecture shots.

The Toronto Police are embarrassed. They would never admit to their shitty detective work. I police cruiser silently stalked me the night of December 13th. They never actually pulled me over for questioning. If Mary Schetman told my mom that I was in the neighborhood, then she could have tipped off police and thay could have prompted some in TPS to help carry out the Sherman Murder. That's why their silently accusing me. It's why I'm the most overpoliced person in the city of Toronto.

Mental health professional. How would you like constant gaslighting. The fact of the matter is that there are dozens of cases by the NYPD or the LAPD where dozens of passerby people walk past a murder scene within 2 minutes of a murder and never even know it. Totally innocent. But the Toronto Police are incompetent. They didn't even screen for DNA within the first 48 hours. The Toronto Police are a pathetic criminal organization and people are scared to call it what it is.
