A list of puns related to "Timeline of Rob Ford video scandal"
While the Star has posted their own timeline (http://www.thestar.com/yourtoronto/robford/rob_ford_crack_scandal_timeline.html), I feel like there are a few things missing and is in the order of reporting and starts May 16. There's a few other thing that are pretty relevant that I wanted to make sure don't fall through the cracks. So this is my attempt to cover everything that's happened that is directly related to the video. If I've missed anything, please let me know.
edit #1: missed some new developments related to the Anthony Smith murder on May 28th and May 30th.
edit #2: added in the reasoning for starting off with the March 26th story. Explanation on April 1st.
edit #3: proper formatting in play.
edit #4: corrected the date of Hanad Mohamed's arrest.

Anthony Smith killed and Muhammad Khattak shot outside Loki Lounge. According to Det. Joyce Schertezer Smith was the intended target of a "very bold" shooting. Both Smith and Khattak's family both report that neither of them were in trouble and it made no sense why they were shot.
A post on Loki Loungeβs Facebook page on March 29 from βLoki Managementβ said βcontrary to media reportsβ there were βno altercations or incidents inside Loki prior to the shootingβ and the bar was closed to patrons at the time of the shooting.

βIt seems to me, your honour, that the media is looking for some sort of information that would link my client to Rob Ford, or Rob Ford to my case, and then theyβre just going to use that for entertainment purposes,β Davoudi said. βYet weβre dealing with a very, very serious case and the future and life of my client is hanging in the balance.β
