<p><a href="https://konniemoments.com/2016/08/26/torontos-fake-beard-bandit-brett-ryan-charged-with-murder-for-crossbow-killings-he-killed-three-people-and-injured-a-fourth-with-the-hunting-weapon/" rel="bookmark">Toronto’s ‘Fake Beard Bandit’, Brett Ryan, charged with murder for crossbow killings – he killed three people and injured a fourth with the hunting weapon.</a><br />
It reveals Brett Ryan planned to murder his mother because he was worried that she would tell his fiancée he was jobless.<br />
He also feared that his fiancée would not marry him. His mother urged him to tell the woman the truth before their wedding or she would cut him off financially.<br />
Ryan also lied about graduating from college in April 2016, despite him dropping out, the document cited by <a href="http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/brett-ryan-pleads-guilty-1.4227608">CBC </a>states. His fiancée knew about Ryan&#8217;s criminal past, according to the TV station.<br />
In 2009, Ryan, who masqueraded in his criminal past as the &#8220;<a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/news/crime/toronto-man-charged-murder-crossbow-killings-article-1.2766859">Fake Beard Bandit</a>,&#8221; was arrested and charged with engaging in a nine-month spree of bank robberies.<br />
He went on serve nearly four years in prison.</p>

<p>Ryan reportedly, had lost his job at an IT company last June due to his criminal past. He told his mother he was lying to his fiancée, saying he was working from their Queens Quay home all summer.<br />
Days before the triple murders, Ryan hid a crossbow in his mother’s garage and set up an iPad and iPhone to create an electronic footprint in his home, according to police.<br />
Ryan intended to confront his mother on the day of the killing. However, they got into a heated argument, prompting her to call her other son, Christopher, for help. Ryan retrieved the crossbow and stabbed his mother with a bow before strangling her with a rope in the garage, according to the document.<br />
When Christopher arrived, Ryan fatally shot him in the back of the neck with an arrow. He hid the bodies under a tarp in the garage. Afterward, Ryan fatally stabbed his younger brother Alexander with an arrow.<br />
Leigh, who was home at the time, emerged from the house to the gruesome sight of Ryan standing over Alexander’s body. The older brother tried calling for help but was set on by Ryan, too. Leigh then managed to escape back outside, and neighbors called 911.<br />
Ryan’s life sentences for the murders will run concurrently.</p>
