Calgary police ultimately ruled Antoni's death accidental, but say there was never a full consensus on that verdict.
The latest episode of Unsolved Mysteries, a true crime documentary series on Netflix, features the troubling death of Amanda Antoni, who was discovered in the basement of her Castleridge home in the fall of 2015.Posted: Aug 01, 2024 8:26 AM EDT | Last Updated: 29 minutes ago
Police spent 14 months investigating the incident, which was immediately thought to be suspicious, before ultimately concluding that Antoni's death was accidental — caused, they deduced, by a fall down the stairs. It's the first time Calgary police have worked with the Unsolved Mysteries series, and Gregson thinks the exposure it will bring could hopefully generate new developments in the case.
Her death was eventually ruled an accident, predominantly because investigators could not find any evidence that someone else had been in the home at the time, said Sweet. For example, there was evidence that Antoni had been struck by a piggy bank which was found at the top of the stairs to the basement; ceramic shards from the object were found around Antoni's body. A chair was also left upturned in the main floor.Staff Sgt. Sean Gregson, who worked with detective Sweet on the case, said the scene police encountered isn't one typically seen in a regular fall down the stairs.
