Code says he has two more sections he wants to deal with today. We're taking the afternoon recess now.

awesome!***thank you for the kind words, mimimic! Yes, lots of education is finally being done. I've trained service providers, law enforcement, social workers, teachers, and also spoken in many classrooms and youth groups.
I could not agree with this more, and wholeheartedly put my support behind this post, given my experience with these populations.MOO
They did not call many, if any, TPS Officers to testify and I believe that could be that they would not have been good witnesses for the Crown. TPS did very little, if nothing, when LB was reported missing. Shawn Lerner had to beg them to look into Dellen Millard as LB's final phone calls/texts were to him. They did not look into Dellen Millard.
TPS, I wholeheartedly believe, did nothing because LB was a sex trade worker, had a history of drug use and mental illness. IMHO they figured she lived a risky lifestyle and those types of people go missing all the time, so why bother.
The only LE type witnesses were analysts and forensic types. Most of them came from Hamilton as most of the evidence was collected at the time of the murder of Tim Bosma. TPS didn't investigate anything about Laura until Tim Bosma was murdered and Dellen Millard's name came up and Shawn Lerner went back to TPS to make them aware.
Pretty sad actually.
Again, MOO
IIRC One of the alternates was excused when her brother died, and the other was excused during Closings for undisclosed, personal reasons.I must say, I feel really sorry for the two jurors that will be dismissed come time for deliberations. I remember how hard it was for the dismissed jurors in the TB trial. They never had closure.
I understand your concerns. However, if she was being trafficked/pimped, she would still have footsteps (to reference the crowns closing). Sadly, Laura is very much gone, and her footsteps end with the two accused.I appreciate your experienced views on this but then there's that still small voice again. DM and MS are a couple of unsavoury characters, that's for sure, and proven, years later, to be capable of brutal murder. However, the poor jury in this case has to decide whether they carried out this particular brutal murder. Didn't she have a restraining order against a boyfriend who was pimping her on the internet just a couple of months before her disappearance? That was the guy who testified that he saw her months later, I think. Maybe I better go back and read the thread more carefully. Anyway, just sayin'. One frivolous side note to that outstanding Star article are the photos mid-way down the page of this heavily tattooed trafficer who is presently biding his time in the hoosegow. Wouldn't you know it? His name is Matthew!! What is it with all these Matthews prowling around on the dark side. (Note to self: Stay far away from overly tattooed Torontonians named Matthew.)
Whenever I have suspicions of Laura disappearing of her own free will, or nefariously, I think back to her willingly leaving Lacey with her parents. That to me shows she anticipated a trip with intent to return. That's based on my years as a dog owner.
Hi Nosey Parket, was it ever confirmed that Laura did in fact leave Lacey herself?

DeaconBrodie? Lol :loser:

That never occurred to me. If it wasnt her, who would have done that?
My opinion here. IF she did not drop her dog off and I *think* I read that they (her parents) came home to the dog and money on the counter. Millard knew that her parents changed the locks and left a key for her outside for her to use at all times, I believe they said they changed the locks to control who comes and goes. I found that odd because they left a key outside hidden so that seem odd and would not change whom she brings in. But anyway I wonder if he dropped the dog off at her parents. I would have to dig to see where I read that but I am new to the boards here and not good at searching.
This is all my opinion but its what I wonder. He left $1000 for the care of the dog and kept the $3000 for himself to spend.

My bold. You decide if it can be part of those 3000."1093
