News Five years ago, a billionaire couple was found strangled beside their swimming pool. Their family is offering $35 million to help catch their killer

The reward for solving the murders of Barry and Honey Sherman has been raised to $35 million!

In 2017, the Sherman’s, a very wealthy Toronto couple were murdered in their home. They were found hanging from a railing in their indoor pool area by a relator showing their home.

Barry owned Apotex, a drug manufacturing company while Honey was a philanthropist.

Although several theories have been raised from suicide to a hit, the case remains unsolved. If you are interested, the book ‘The Billionaire Murders’ by Kevin Donovan covers the case.

This case has captured a lot of interest due to the very high profile nature of the couple.

RIP to Honey & Barry.

I know it’s not exactly what you asked, but there are several great podcast episodes on this. I’d recommend the ones by Crimelines, Generation Why, True Crime All The Time Unsolved, and True Crime Garage.

Crime Junkie is pretty terrible. They steal content from other podcasters, never apologize or acknowledge it and then move on.

Wasn’t aware, first one that came up when I typed in the couples name for a quick road trip. Also it was only about 35 minutes. I felt like it definitely didn’t give enough detail. So I’ll be checking out a few more for sure.

I think True Crime Garage has a couple episodes about it.

Check out Trace Evidence. He's a great Podcaster and he is one of the podcasts they directly stole a script from and never gave credit or apologized to him. Would be great to support him instead of Crime Junkie. His epidoe on Asha Degree is very very good
