About two years ago, on the evening of Feb. 18, 2022, Toronto Police Service Const. Boris Borissov was called to investigate the apartment of a missing man, where he discovered a suicide note upon arrival.
As they continued searching the home, Borissov found an empty box for a Tag Heuer watch. His phone records reveal he Googled the brand’s name shortly after.
“I saw the empty watch box, and I was curious about watches,” Borissov told the court on Tuesday.
Photos of a Tag Heuer watch, however, were taken on Borissov’s phone later that same evening. Borissov assured the court it was “absolutely not” the watch from the deceased man’s home.
“It’s a photo of the watch,” he said. “This is a watch that I had in my house.”
So the photo of the watch he had at his house was a Tag Heuer, but he had to earlier google the brand name because he didn’t know what it was? Did he also google what a wallet is?
