I’m not going to rehash the details surrounding the Epstein … thing, because I don’t have any.
Nobody seems to.
And what details we do know make absolutely no sense whatsoever. The official story sounds like a Millennial giving his boss an excuse for why he was late for work; complete horse manure.
Peel Regional Police have quietly conceded that millions in gold stolen from Toronto Pearson Airport in April 2023 was likely quickly smuggled out of Canada to the Middle East or South Asia.
“We believe a large portion has gone overseas to markets that are flush with gold,” lead investigator Det. Sgt. Mike Mavity told members of the Peel Police Service Board during a June 21 meeting.
“That would be Dubai, or India, where you can take gold with serial numbers on it and they will still honour it and melt it down…. And we believe that happened very shortly after the incident.”
Prosecutors investigating Jeffrey Epstein in Florida “sabotaged their own case” and missed an opportunity to stop America’s most prolific sex offender a decade earlier, lawyers for his victims told The Times.
Transcripts from preliminary proceedings in the 2006 criminal case against Epstein — which have now been made public — showed attorneys for Florida making “atrocious” attempts to excuse his behaviour.
Toronto police are looking for a stolen vehicle in connection with at least eight separate shootings in the city over the weekend.
Police said that no injuries were reported at any scene, but several vehicles and residences or work locations were struck multiple times, all of which are connected to the city’s tow truck industry.
Florida prosecutors knew Epstein raped teenage girls 2 years before cutting deal, transcript shows
Florida prosecutors heard graphic testimony about how the late millionaire and financier Jeffrey Epstein sexually assaulted teenage girls two years before they cut a plea deal, according to transcripts released Monday of the 2006 grand jury investigation.
The transcripts were at the center of a court battle for about a decade after media investigations into Epstein’s ties to the rich and the powerful seems to have allowed him to continue to rape and sex traffic teenagers without ever being sent to prison or serving a serious jail term.

The federal government’s refusal to allow prisoners to use the internet effectively blocks access to post-secondary education behind bars, a new lawsuit alleges.
Noting how colleges and universities that once offered paper correspondence programs have shifted almost entirely online, the lawsuit by the John Howard Society and a prisoner serving a life sentence argues that the Correctional Service of Canada’s internet ban — and “woefully inadequate” access to computers in general — infringes prisoners’ “fundamental right to freedom of expression,” which includes the right to receive information.
I guess porn is considered “education” by some.
The 12-year-old Houston girl whose brutal killing has shocked the nation and re-opened the debate over the border crisis was laid to rest in Houston today, surrounded by hundreds of Texans who wanted to pay their respects.
The death of Jocelyn Nungaryay, who was strangled, bound and whose body was thrown in a bayou, has captured national attention as the two men accused in her death entered the US illegally in El Paso, Texas.
Venezuelans Johan Jose Rangel Martinez, 21, and Franklin Jose Pena Ramos, 26, are facing capital murder charges in her slaying.
US Surgeon General Vivek Murthy has declared gun violence a public health crisis, a move aimed at curbing the US’ role in leading the world in shooting deaths.
In a first-of-its-kind report urging action, the country’s top doctor noted that a majority of Americans or their family members have experienced gun violence.
A public health approach could help, Dr Murthy argues, as it did with changes to seatbelt safety in vehicles and warnings about health impacts of smoking cigarettes. He hopes to remove politics from an issue that has bitterly divided lawmakers and instead have Americans look at the impacts and the data.
A provincial task force charged with probing carjackings in Ontario says it has made 124 arrests and recovered 177 stolen vehicles valued at over $10 million.
The task force said Tuesday that it made the arrest and recoveries over a seven-month period from September 2023 to March 2024. Official said a total of 749 criminal charges were laid and eight firearms were seized as well.
Wait till you hear the Bail figures.
A 14-year-old boy has been charged in connection with a “mass shooting” that took the lives of two men and wounded three others earlier this month in north Etobicoke, police say.
The shooting happened at around 11 p.m. on June 2 in Rexdale.
Police say that a group of men were gathered outside North Albion Collegiate Institute following a soccer game when at least two suspects got out of a vehicle and began shooting “indiscriminately.”
TORONTO — A fourth teen accused in the fatal stabbing of a Toronto homeless man has pleaded guilty.
The girl, who was 14 at the time of the incident, pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the death of 59-year-old Kenneth Lee.
Police have alleged that Lee, who was living in the city’s shelter system, died after he was swarmed and stabbed by a group of girls in December 2022.
Outside a retirement complex in east Toronto, where all but shift workers are asleep in the early hours, a dramatic police takedown is about to unfold.
In less than five hours, a police officer will be in hospital, a suspected car thief in handcuffs and a second suspect – a wanted fugitive.
This is the frontline in the war against auto theft in Canada — where a car is stolen roughly every five minutes.
The 400 kilograms of stolen gold disappeared from view on a country road outside Toronto, somewhere past a golf course and an apple orchard.
In the days after the brazen April 2023 robbery at Pearson Airport, Peel Police canvassed 225 homes and businesses, looking for security camera footage, hoping to trace the path of the white five-ton truck that had ferried away the pallet of gold bars.
Hitmen were given medical ‘murder kits’, while A&E staff had to write fake reports of accidents for insurance scams
When the mafia quietly took over the running of San Giovanni Bosco hospital in Naples, the plan was less about saving lives and more about making money and killing people.
Creating what one magistrate called an “anti-state”, the mob dealt drugs and held summits in wards, gave fast-track treatment to patients for cash, ran accident insurance scams in the emergency wing and used ambulances to deliver cocaine.
It was the middle of the pandemic, and the dizzyingly complex criminal case against Arash Missaghi was falling apart.
A looming trial was about to test the most substantial set of charges Missaghi — a man who would become known as a “prolific fraudster” — had ever faced. But in the midst of the pandemic, as courts struggled to hear proceedings on Zoom, the case was collapsing in a virtual Ontario courtroom.
Ten weeks out from a jury trial, Justice John McMahon heard reservations from Crown attorney Mitchell Flagg about several of the accused, including Missaghi, having yet to retain a lawyer, and the prospect of running a trial with several self-represented people, including one who would need the entire hearing translated into Farsi.
