Bill Horace (c. 1976[1] – June 21, 2020[2]) was a Liberian fighter, a former member of the National Patriotic Front of Liberia (NPFL)[3] and alleged war criminal.
[5] In the early 1990s, during the First Liberian Civil War, Horace was a General in Charles Taylor's NPFL and was reported to have participated in or ordered massacres, executions, crucifixions, and the recruitment of child soldiers, primarily in Maryland County.
[8] Through the 2010s he was investigated by the Canadian government for war crimes, stalling his immigration proceedings.
[8] He lived in Toronto[9] and then in London, Ontario, where he was fatally shot in his home in a planned attack on June 21, 2020.
[5] BBC News reported on speculation that his killing was linked to activities in Liberia, but that Canadian police stated his death was presumed linked to a network of criminal fraudsters in Canada.
