A mentally ill man died after a run-in with jail guards in 2016. Now Ontario police say no one will be charged


"The fact that they did not charge them with anything — that broke everyone in my family," Soleiman's younger brother Sam said in an exclusive interview at the family's home. The family's lawyers say senior figures inside the coroner's office expressed concerns after hearing that account, saying there might be reason for criminal charges in Soleiman's death. "They viciously beat him to death," Thibeault said. In the months that followed Soleiman's death, two of the jail's managers were fired, with the province saying they hadn't "acted in the course and scope of their duties." For Soleiman's family, meanwhile, the grief deepens each passing day without closure.
