In the early hours of April 15, 2017, Samatar Farah was shot and killed in a quiet Scarborough parking lot. There were no eyewitnesses. No clear motive. And for years, no answers.
What followed was a complex homicide investigation built almost entirely on surveillance footage, cell phone data, forensic ballistics, and circumstantial evidence gathered across multiple Toronto neighbourhoods. Cameras captured movement. Cell towers traced a digital path. And a single firearm, recovered a day later, would ultimately link the crime to a wider network of associations.
