Kevin Donovan?s conversation with Canada?s Dean of lawyers who advocates for the wrongfully convicted. James Lockyer talks about the new federal plan that could one day free Chris Sheriffe.

There can be problems when using confidential informants and hearsay evidence, especially when a man?s freedom is at stake. Lawyer Dean Embry?s conversation with Kevin Donovan provides a back story for our Murder on Mount Olive investigation.  

In this bonus episode, we hear a top cop?s story of being Black and on the job in one of Canada?s biggest police forces.  Listen to Keith Merith?s conversation with Kevin Donovan, providing a back story for our Murder on Mount Olive investigation.

It?s now been 13 years. Chris reflects on decisions he made. The friends he had. Staying out that hot night in August instead of going home. And on what he would do if he is ever released. In the final episode of the series, we offer him a potential lifeline. Tell us what really happened between you and Awet, what he said, what he was planning to do that day. Surely this was a drug deal gone wrong. 

A trial scheduled for one month becomes two. The Judge is not pleased. It?s now down to 12 jurors to determine Chris and Awet?s fate ? but the lone Black juror gets sick so now it?s 11. Among the evidence the jury hears: false DNA evidence that?s not corrected; a transcription of Chris?s own words that is incorrect and not corrected; and the recollections of two police officers whose notes are strikingly similar. And then the jury comes in. At the end of the day, Chris knows that if he had stepped up and said he was involved in the shooting he?d have gotten a deal and would be out of prison by now. But there?s a reason he will never do that.

The day of the murder from all sides. Chris, Awet Asfaha, two young women ? each give a different perspective on the events leading up to Kim Golaub?s brutal murder. What they did. What was said. You?ve heard Chris?s story before, but now at trial Awet comes out with a stunning story. There was someone else that day. A mysterious third man who was the killer. And Chris was the getaway driver, with Awet just along for the ride. This made the case a ?cutthroat? defence ? fingers pointing in different decisions.

Chris is out on bail leading up to the trial. Toronto Police show up at his house one night. They end up assaulting his father, arresting his brother, and not long after Chris?s bail is revoked when a new charge is laid against him. Marjorie, Chris?s mom, overhears police officers give an ominous warning about the men in her family and she goes into high gear ? she?s in the fight of her life against Toronto?s finest. Then comes another bombshell. That young police officer with the gang information says Chris is the leader of a dangerous gang called ?The Hustle Squad.? A gang so mysterious, no members of the elite police Guns and Gangs Squad has ever heard of them.

Kevin Donovan talks about why he decided to look at Chris Sheriffe's case. Hear from him, and catch up on the series so far, while getting a glimpse of the weeks ahead. 

Subscribers get access to episodes one week early. 

Bombshell. On the eve of the murder trial, a young Toronto police officer emerges with two confidential sources, one of them purporting to be a gang member, who tell a very different story about Chris Sheriffe. It throws Chris?s defence team for a loop. And here?s the problem. The judge won?t let the lawyers attack this new information.

This Friday, April 4, the second half of Murder on Mount Olive's season starts with episode 6, Bodies To His Name, as well as episode 7, one week early for subscribers. If you haven't heard the first five episodes to date, get caught up with the stories and main players so far, with this short trailer. Or listen to the first half of the season in your feed. 

Who is Chris Sheriffe? Elite soccer player. Aspiring carpenter. Good family. We hear from the people who knew him best, mother, sister, coach. We also learn about his experience growing up as a young Black teen in Toronto ? the frequent police stops and his complaint about the most egregious one. He?s in his Catholic school uniform, heading home from class at the end of the day and cops are tailing him for no reason at all. And that new prosecutor, she puts the first degree murder case back on track. 

The forensics. How three bullets killed a man. The gun shot residue. Where it landed and where it didn?t land gives homicide detectives some help, but not much. It turns out the case against Chris Sheriffe and Awet Asfaha is weak. Plus, the police screwed up the evidence collection. Things come to a head at the preliminary hearing, where a judge must decide if the charge of first degree murder ? a planned killing ? is the correct one. Plus, since Chris was just driving the car, did he really know what was about to happen? A judge said no and the case fell apart. Enter a new prosecutor. It was time for a full court press.

Twelve years into his life sentence for murder, Chris Sheriffe is a model prisoner. He?s doing all the courses available behind bars, plus weekly meetings of the prison public speaking club. He does conflict resolution, helping guards and prisoners get along. Which is intriguing, given that Toronto Police labelled him a hard knuckled killer. Also, he calls his Mom several times a day. In an interview at the notorious ?Gladiator School? prison, Chris tells his side of the story. How his choice to stay out all night with a young woman, then drive a man home got him labelled a gangster.

Homicide detectives get lucky. The best witness possible, and he?s talking, and he?s got a partial licence plate from a car that left the scene right after Kim Golaub was shot dead. But homicide cops are struggling for a motive. Did someone have a grudge against the victim? Was he in the wrong place at the wrong time? Just a few hours after the murder homicide detectives have two young men in separate interview rooms. Their tactics? Lying to get a confession.
