Toronto police has released critical information, including photos of alleged suspect, in the killing of 24-year-old Mike Pimentel that took place on the New Year’s Day in 2012. According to the police, Mr. Pimentel left his friends at the Liberty Grand banquet hall at Exhibition Place and was later found stabbed near Liberty Street and Hanna Avenue at around 3 a.m. Thereafter, he died in a hospital.
Even though police had released images of a woman believed to be involved with the suspect, the case remains unsolved. As the the three-year anniversary of Pimentel’s death approached, police initiated a social media campaign inspired by the American true-crime podcast Serial on Dec. 6. As part of the campaign, photos and clues of people and evidence involved were revealed in hope of finding more witnesses. In order to sum up the campaign on Wednesday, Toronto Police finally released the final images at a news conference near the crime scene.
During the press conference, Det. Jeff Tavares stated that “I want everybody to take a good look at this picture and think back” and “think back to New Year’s Eve 2011, the morning after, January 1st, 2012. Think about who you were with, if you were in the Liberty Village area. Think about who you saw that evening.” He stressed that “do you remember seeing this man? Do you remember seeing the woman that was with the man? Were you at the same venue as this person?”
