Three people charged in connection with the murder of a 37-year-old man in July 2022 have been found guilty.
The trial held in Lindsay wrapped up Tuesday, June 17, 2025, after three and a half weeks.
37-year-old Eduardo ‘Tito’ Silva was convicted of second-degree murder, 30-year-old Jack Monine was convicted of manslaughter and accessory after the fact and 38-year-old Rebecca Silva was convicted of accessory after the fact in the murder of Shawn Singh.
Mr. Singh was shot and killed on July 2, 2022 at approximately 2:00pm in the street in the Park Street and Sherbrooke Street area.
“This positive result comes after almost three years after the killing of Shawn Singh and is a testament to the hard work of investigators to identify and bring those committing violence in our community before the courts. This shooting was a brazen attack in a public space. It had far reaching impacts on the victim’s family and public safety. I am proud of the dedication and hours of work from those in our Investigative Services Unit from detectives to victim services as this case took them from Peterborough to Toronto and Sault Ste. Marie.
These investigations and trials show the partnership of the police service and the Crown to bring forward the best information for a jury. I am grateful to our prosecutors for their efforts in this case. Much of what the police do relies on a vigorous prosecution and together we are helping to ensure that healing can begin for Mr. Singh’s family. Outcomes such as this give the community a sense of justice being done.” Chief Stuart Betts, Peterborough Police Service.
Sentencing is expected to be in the fall.
