What if it wasn’t really suicide? Hello, I’m Jay Nicoll of Nicoll Investigation and this is Ontario Cold Cases - Canada’s True Crime Podcast.  Imagine this: a promising young man, John Connelly, 22 years old, with a glowing future ahead of him. A third-year pharmacy student at the University of Toronto, he was not just academically driven but also an accomplished athlete—former co-captain of the hockey team at Ottawa’s elite Ashbury College and recipient of its top award for athletics and academics. Then, on a frigid December morning in 2001, John’s lifeless body was found sprawled on the icy pavement outside his 10-storey apartment on Toronto’s Walmer Road. At first glance, the scene whispered “suicide.” But not to his parents. John was found face-up, broken but oddly composed. His gloves were snugly on, his jacket zipped to the neck, and a toque covered his head. Except... John never wore gloves. He never zipped his jacket. And that toque? Not even a winter hat—it was a head cover from his golf club set, a peculiar accessory he’d never think to wear. The details screamed something was off. The Connelly’s couldn’t ignore the glaring inconsistencies, especially the deep bruise on his forehead. Forensic experts would later confirm that the injury couldn’t have been caused by the fall alone. His parents were convinced of a darker truth: John was attacked in his apartment, knocked unconscious, and staged to look like he had jumped—or worse, fallen—from the rooftop. The question that haunts them, and anyone who looks closely, remains: if the scene was so meticulously crafted, who was behind it, and why? The answers, it seems, lie somewhere in the chilling gap between perception and reality—a gap wide enough to swallow the truth whole. Ontario Cold Cases – Canada’s True Crime Podcast.
