Wow - Apparently the Ford brothers were selling drugs a while back.


Bizarre story. I'm surprised the Ford brothers got this far without their laundry being aired.

So... there is now a murder investigation linked to this video story.
Also - Ford apparently told his staff that he knew where the video was 2 weeks ago (hence, it's not surprising that it can no longer be found).

'But with Price -- who has also reportedly given the Toronto police a statement -- tipping Towhey off to a possible link to the Anthony Smith murder investigation, speculation in the media Tuesday turned to the slain drug dealer possibly being the owner of the smartphone video in question.

And the media is now questioning whether Smith was murdered over what he possibly knew about the Rob Ford crack tape.'

'Toronto Mayor Rob Ford told senior aides not to worry about a video appearing to show him smoking crack cocaine because he knew where it was, sources told the Star.

Ford then blurted out the address of two 17th-floor units � 1701 and 1703 � at a Dixon Rd. apartment complex, to the shock of staffers at a city hall meeting almost two weeks ago, the sources said.

The mayor cited �our contacts� as the source of his information, according to insiders familiar with the unusual May 17 session in his office.'
