A group of petitioners is calling on police to release their findings in the brutal axe attack on a Toronto woman.
On Nov. 3, 2004, Wyann Ruso was attacked in her Scarborough home by her husband.
Just hours before the attack, Ruso went to a police station to report that her husband had threatened to kill her. She also turned over his shotgun at that time.
However, police did not pick up the man, and Ruso was attacked when she returned home to fed her disabled daughter.
Ruso was badly injured, suffering a fractured skull and a broken jaw, but survived the attack. Her husband was subsequently arrested.
Shortly after the incident, then police chief Julian Fantino said the force would conduct an internal review into how Ruso's complaint was handled.
Now, more than a year after that promise was made, more than 2,000 people have signed postcards calling on the current police chief, Bill Blair, to release the results of that review."
