About this episode

This episode examines the Vaughan condo shooting that left five people dead, detailing the timeline, grievances, and police response.

On December 18, 2022, a mass shooting event inside Bellaria Tower II in Vaughan, Ontario left five people dead. Francesco Villi, a 73-year-old resident of the Bellaria condominium at 9235 Jane Street, carried out the attack after years of escalating legal disputes with the condo board. Within minutes, five residents were killed: Rita Camilleri, Vittorio Panza, Russell Manock, Helen “Lorraine” Manock, and Naveed Dada. Doreen Di Nino survived her injuries. In this episode, we examine the timeline of the Vaughan condo shooting, Villi’s documented grievances, his final video, the police response, and the Ontario Special Investigations Unit findings.
