Another one of fugitive Ryan Wedding’s former accomplices has turned against him, CBC News has learned.
Records filed in Ontario Superior Court reveal the FBI secured the help of a new informant this year who had “trafficked drugs with Wedding and assisted Wedding with committing multiple murders.”
Ten people were arrested this week as part of an FBI investigation into an alleged drug trafficking organization that Wedding is said to head. He remains at large.
In the parking lot of an east-end Toronto apartment building, a detective in plain clothes and a bullet-proof vest empties a bag of potential evidence he and other officers seized moments before from a main-floor unit.
Wrapped in plastic bags are hammers, a replica handgun, a diamond ring in a Peoples Jewellers box, a balaclava, jewelry display boxes and pieces of broken glass police believe could have come from jewelry display cases smashed during a series of 11 robberies and attempted robberies in June and early July.
“It’s disturbing that it seems every time we make an arrest or an occurrence happens, another one seems to follow it,” said Det. Sgt. Ryan Boulay, who leads York Regional Police’s (YRP) holdup unit. York Region is an area north of Toronto that includes Richmond Hill and Markham.
The usual yutes who will only face charges as “minors” are being recruited.

A network of seemingly legitimate professionals in Canada and abroad are accused of keeping a billion-dollar drug cartel afloat under the violent leadership of former Canadian Olympic snowboarder Ryan Wedding.
While Wedding is named as the improbable mastermind behind a vast cocaine empire — compared by the FBI to history’s most notorious drug lords Pablo Escobar and El Chapo Guzman — nine other people were also alleged by the U.S. government to form a “network of enablers” who stop him choking on a mountain of hard-to-use dirty money.
When Brittani Russell contacted Langley RCMP last year about a crime blogger posting veiled threats against her, she expected it would get taken seriously.
Instead, the officer who came to her home last December suggested she just ignore the posts on the Dirty Newz’s website and social media accounts, Russell said Thursday.
Since learning this week that the site’s founder allegedly conspired with an international crime group to get a witness killed in Colombia, she realizes how at risk she was.
The seized blog is The Dirty Newz portions of which are still available via the Wayback Machine.
The son of billionaire murder victims Barry and Honey Sherman has gone to court to remove his fellow trustees from control of part of his late parents’ estate, citing “breach of trust.”
In documents filed in Superior Court, Jonathon Sherman seeks to remove the two other trustees from control of a multimillion-dollar trust set up by his late father in 2016, the year before he was murdered. Jonathon states that his reasons are “grounded in alleged breach of trust, breach of fiduciary duty and failure to act in the best interests of the beneficiaries.”
TORONTO — On the path to becoming the first Canadian of genuine Latin American cartel stature — a man the FBI has likened to a “modern-day iteration of Pablo Escobar” — Ryan Wedding did not simply exploit Canada’s borders, ports and highways to move cocaine, methamphetamine and fentanyl.
Prosecutors say he became the single largest cocaine importer into Canada, building a billion-dollar enterprise by mastering cryptocurrency money-laundering, legal strategy, paramilitary training and the kind of hardened operational security usually associated with state intelligence agencies.

On Dec. 1, 2009, the police searched a house on the outskirts of Thunder Bay, Ontario, looking for an illegal .22-caliber handgun.
Instead, they found cash — lots of it — hidden around the property, including 15,000 Canadian dollars stuffed in a heating vent in the living room floor, $9,750 in a suitcase in the garage and $1.2 million in a Rubbermaid tub that was buried under the dirt floor of the garage.
High-profile Brampton defence lawyer Deepak Paradkar has been arrested after being charged with helping a massive illegal drug organization murder witnesses, enlist corrupt lawyers and streamline drug routes.
Paradkar, who’s nicknamed “Napoleon” by GTA colleagues for his tough courtroom tactics, was charged Tuesday with plotting murders with fugitive drug kingpin Ryan Wedding, who’s accused of running a billion-dollar-a-year drug enterprise.
There’s no doubt Jeffrey Epstein thought he was a very, very smart guy. “He always thought he was the smartest person in the room,” said one associate. Another said Epstein “thought he was smarter than the next guy.” When in 2008 Epstein pleaded guilty to procurement of a minor for prostitution, his defense asked for leniency based on his “unique intellect.”
U.S. and Canadian authorities announced new arrests, indictments and sanctions on Wednesday in their continuing efforts to locate, arrest and prosecute Canadian ex-Olympic snowboarder turned fugitive Ryan Wedding, who allegedly leads a transnational crime network.
Appearing at a joint news conference in Washington, D.C., with Canadian authorities, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said authorities have worked closely with international partners. Ms. Bondi unsealed a new indictment outlining new charges, including murder and witness tampering, against more of Mr. Wedding’s alleged associates and increased the reward for information leading to Mr. Wedding’s arrest from $10-million to $15-million.

There are moments when a nation seems to drift, slowly and imperceptibly, into breakdown. Like Mike Campbell in Hemingway’s 1926 novel The Sun Also Rises, Belgium has done it “gradually, then suddenly.” The country, once the heart of Europe’s industrial miracle and the quiet administrative seat of the EU, is in big trouble. If Brussels once wished to become the Eurocrats’ Rome, an imperial capital of the new, boring, technocratic imperium that is the Union, the country has, instead, faced a storm of genuinely Gibbonian decay. In Belgium, one senses a fatigue that is deeper than political scandal or economic stagnation. It is the fatigue of a state that no longer quite believes it can govern itself.
America’s crime map is not random. And it is not evenly distributed. It forms a pattern, a persistent outline that says more about the country than any campaign speech or census brochure ever could. When you trace the safest states in America, you trace a corridor of calm: New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont’s shadow, Idaho’s long sweep of farms and foothills. Places where the pace is steady and the population overwhelmingly white. When you trace the most dangerous states, the pattern changes just as sharply — a concentration of chaos in states marked by sprawling cities, fractured communities, and the kind of “diverse” demographic makeup polite society insists you never mention.
It doesn’t get any lower and creepier than robbing graves.
This man and woman accused of doing this 300 times in Halton, Hamilton, Niagara and Toronto found a way to make it even more gross, disturbing and evil, according to police. This story is 18-karat crazy in which the accused couple are alleged to have removed jewelry from bodies resting inside GTA mausoleums.
A recent shift in how the language around child sexual abuse is being framed has come to my attention, and it is deeply disturbing. The word “pedophile” is slowly being replaced in some academic and therapeutic settings with the term MAP, meaning minor-attracted person. At first glance, it might seem harmless or even compassionate. The idea is that someone can experience an attraction without acting on it, and therefore, reducing stigma might encourage them to seek help.
