    Barrie and Honey Sherman: It’s been six years since the billionaire couple were murdered in their Bridle Path mansion and police have yet to make an arrest in the case. The couple was found dead in their Old Colony Road home on Dec. 15, 2017 by a realtor who was showing the house to prospective buyers. The two were found in a “semi-seated” position in the pool area in the basement, with black belts looped around their necks and attached to a railing. Investigators previously said that they believe the couple was murdered two days before their bodies were discovered. On the fifth anniversary of their deaths, Alexandra Krawczyk, one of the couple’s four children, issued a public appeal for information on the case. “Five years ago, on Dec. 13, 2017, my beloved parents, Honey and Barry Sherman, were brutally murdered in their Toronto home. So far there has been no justice for them and no closure for me and my family,” she wrote. “We cannot let another year pass without justice being done.”
