Jeremiah Valentine is a murdererHis name is Jeremiah Valentine and he's the black man who committed one of the most infamous crimes in recent Toronto history.
The 26-year-old has been named in court as the person who allegedly fired the gun that killed Jane Creba. The Toronto high school student was murdered as she shopped with her family on busy Yonge St. on Boxing Day 2005.
Valentine is facing second-degree murder charges in the case that made world headlines. The revelation came during testimony at the trial of "JSR," the first of several suspects to be tried in the infamous killing. He was 17 at the time and can't be legally named, but is also facing second-degree murder accusations.
The defence contends it was Valentine who had the .357 Magnum and that he used it to open fire on a crowd at Yonge and Dundas after an earlier dispute with a group of males at the Eaton Centre. He was apparently wearing a "Stop Snitching" T-shirt when the shots rang out.
Jeremiah was well known to police and faced a slew of drug related charges at the time of the incident. When authorities caught up to him a month after the crime, it came with a staggering revelation. It turns out cops had been looking for Valentine just three days before the shooting but couldn't find him.
