HAMILTON – An identification officer has told the trial of two men accused of killing Tim Bosma she found blood inside the Hamilton man’s pickup truck.
Det. Const. Laura McLellan of Halton Regional Police says she found blood throughout Bosma’s truck when she first examined it on May 15, 2013.
Bosma disappeared on the night of May 6, 2013 after taking two strangers on a test drive of a black Dodge Ram pickup truck he was trying to sell.
His body was found more than a week later burned beyond recognition.
Dellen Millard, 30, of Toronto, and Mark Smich, 28, from Oakville, Ont., have pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder in the death of the Hamilton man.
McLellan says she and other officers sent 64 swabs of blood from the truck and contents of the trailer it was found in to the Centre of Forensic Sciences for further analysis.
