HAMILTON – The trial of two men accused of killing Tim Bosma after he went on a test drive in his truck continues Thursday with a police officer’s testimony about the movements of cell phones of the accused.
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.
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.
Phil Wilkenson, a cellphone expert with the Ontario Provincial Police says Smich’s phone, Millard’s phone and a third phone, a prepaid one registered to Lucas Bate, travelled together from Toronto to Oakville to Hamilton and arrived near Bosma’s home around 9 p.m. on May 6.
A Hamilton police officer told court Wednesday she lifted a fingerprint from Bosma’s truck that matched Millard’s left ring finger.
