Colin Grey, a loving husband and father, entered what should have been a routine detention at Windsor Police Headquarters on Nov. 29, 2024. Tragically, he never returned home. Grey collapsed outside the police station shortly after being released and entered a diabetic coma from which he didn't recover.

The Grey family is devastated by this traumatic incident and left with a profound loss. D. Joel Dick of Howie, Sacks & Henry LLP, says his clients not only want accountability and transparency from those responsible to help them find their own sense of closure, but they also want any systemic failures identified to be fixed so that no other family has to experience anything similar.
