Murdered Youth : DEVON Marsman,halifax NS

04/07/2026

We are still here, we are still watching and waiting. There is nothing new to report. Court continues next month for one and the others are later this year. There is a publication ban in place for all of them now so we can't really say too much but we will be there.

It has been four years since Devon was taken from this world.
For his family, the nightmare has not ended. They have lived it every single day.

Many believe that when someone dies, everything dies with them.
But that is not Devon’s story.

In the face of unimaginable evil, Devon’s name has carried more love into this world than anyone could have imagined. Through strangers who became family. Through kindness that crossed boundaries. Through people who never met him, yet feel changed by him.

His light did not go out.
It multiplied.

He has shown us that no matter how dark this world can be, evil will never have more power than truth, goodness, and love.

To his family; please know you are not alone.
We stand beside you.
We remain Devon’s Army.

And we will continue to fight for justice — for Devon, and for those who love him.

Treyton Marsman’s trial is January 11 to February 5, 2027

Still no date for Mark Doyle we should know dates for that early in October.

FOUND SAFE ❤️
If you know something say something. He is out there somewhere

From — So this has been too quiet for my liking. Trey has been missing since Monday.

He is a big part of the younger generation music scene here and it’s time for the bands and ppl who know him to blast this out.

A missing person’s report was filed. If anyone knows anything, give the HRP a call or his bandmates or anyone who knows him. Cause for concern. Please share
