Windsor Justice Trifecta · Chapter 3

David Simetic

Principal Claimant #3 · living · co-plaintiff with Francesco Giovanni Longo and the Estate of Raffi Ceylan

Ten complaints to the Law Society of Ontario over ten years. Every one dismissed as “frivolous” within two to four weeks. Not a single one reviewed the audio recording in which the lawyer admits — in his own voice — to forging bank statements. Approximately CAD $400,000 was stolen from the Estate of Ivan Valentich. A 328-page investigation binder documents every signature, every transaction, every party. This page is the public evidence record.

David Simetic joins Francesco Giovanni Longo and the Estate of Raffi Ceylan as the third principal plaintiff of the Windsor Justice Trifecta. The Groot family — Norman Groot, 1999 Peel Regional Police obstruction-of-justice conviction, and Dr. Emily Groot, Ontario Chief Coroner during the 2016 Raffi Ceylan investigation — is the cross-chapter bridge that unites his claim with the Ceylan claim under s. 467.1 of the Criminal Code (criminal organization).

R. v. Groot (1999) · CanLII

Norman Groot · Peel Regional Police

Norman Groot, then a serving Peel Regional Police officer, was convicted in 1999 of obstruction of justice and fabrication of evidence. This conviction is the legal fact that establishes the Groot-family pattern of obstruction at the heart of the cross-chapter bridge.

Law Society of Ontario · systematic dismissal

Headline Quantum

CAD $132,000,000 recommended floor (Exhibit 17-SIMETIC Damages Multiplier Schedule, 27 April 2026). This replaces the provisional CAD $60M figure from the Three-Track Litigation Plan, which was flagged "TBD · awaiting calculation." The new number applies the same per-perpetrator × years × crimes methodology used for the Ceylan chapter — 20 years of estate fraud, 4 individual perpetrators (Goldberg, Fullerton, Norman Groot, Emily Groot), 5 institutional defendants (LSO, Shibley Righton, Peel Regional Police, Office of the Chief Coroner, Ontario SCJ/LECA), Whiten punitives, Ward Charter damages, aggravated damages for 10×10 LSO dismissal pattern, plus RICO enhancement. This is a floor, not a cap — final judgment may exceed it.

Unified Trifecta recommended floor: CAD $642,000,000+ across all three chapters, subject to upward revision at trial.

The family relationship between the two Defendants, combined with the documented misconduct by each in institutional roles twenty-seven years apart, is the foundation for the joint-enterprise criminal organization claim pleaded under s. 467.1 of the Criminal Code, R.S.C. 1985, c. C-46, against all 24 Defendants jointly and severally.
