I'm looking, Coldpizza. Much of the family holdings appear to have been tied up in the MillardAir corp entity and so continued after CM's death without division (DM being CEO and WM being Pres). CM's shares in the co would, one presumes, have been subject to probate but he may have divested himself of his share position before his death. There's no way of knowing whether that's the case and the relative share positions of DM and WM would not be public documents.
Deep down in
http://www.thestar.com/news/crime/2013/05/14/tim_bosma_disappearance_suspect_is_completely_in_shock_by_the_charges.html we learn that
" In court documents, Millard is listed as living on Maple Gate Crt. in Etobicoke, which was transferred from grandparents Carl and Della to Dellen and his father in April 2008.
He was also listed on a Derry Rd. W. home in Mississauga alongside his father in April 2008. That property was sold for $795,000 in June 2012, several months before his father’s death.
"Millard purchased a rural Waterloo Region property on Roseville Rd. in 2011 for $835,000."
I'll keep looking for the 50/50 asset dispersal reference because I definitely recall having read it somewhere. Meanwhile, it is quite clear that in this very small family, where each member and each generation were financially looking out for each other, their actual access to cash sources was co-mingled (in just the same way as many husbands and wives have shared bank accounts, shared home ownership and shared investments in their joint names.) This is why, IMO, it makes no sense whatsoever to tease with the idea that DM murdered his father in order to get his stuff. He already had such access. In exactly the same way, it would make no sense for a wife to obliterate her husband with a rolling pin in order to get to the cash or own the family home. She already has these things.
As a matter of fact, (AS' self-serving commentary notwithstanding) that given DM's self professed interest in business management and his fairly substantial real estate portfolio (for his age) and considering the reports of WM's struggles with alcohol, it seems more likely that DM took the lead in the business affairs well before WM's death - something anyone dealing alone with a parent's substance abuse will understand very well. :moo:
Anyway, back with the link as soon as I can find where I stuffed it.
