The parents are both chiropractors but appear to live quite frugally themselves.
CN had a part time job as a lifeguard/swimming instructor with Toronto, which has caused concern with some of the parents of the children she oversaw.
The local DM social circle is buzzing offline again as a result of the arrest and charges. Renewed professions of ignorance and circling of wagons.
I continue to encourage those in the know to come forward to LE.
You know it is interesting, when DM first came to the attention of the public, sentiment was that there was no way a good looking rich boy could get tied up with murder unless he was taken advantage of. Well I think those were DM's words, he felt "taken advantage of". Poor innocent DM, he was under the influence and control of someone so much bigger and eviler.
However in social circles it seems he was known as a hard partier with some pretty iffy friends. Lots of coke and ecstasy, and it seems DM was a supplier, and you know coke means guns, because having coke and the money from selling the coke around gets to be a bit of a security risk when business is going well. He probably didn't mind it being known that he had a gun.
He hung out with MS, and MS hung out with the kind of thugs that would punch you in the head for your phone. This social circle had a lot of friends in drug wholesale/retail and at least one of these people had international connections.
Much has been made of DM being disinterested in Millardair but that by no means meant he was rudderless or unable to organize and control events and people.

You only host parties with free flowing coke if you are selling it and want people to come back and buy more from you. Then it's a business expense.
I think DM saw LB as an opportunity to try his hand at prostitution. He hooked her, groomed her, and sent her out on the street. LB must have threatened to tell what he had done to her, to...LE? Whatever, DM decided he HAD to get rid of her because she had enough dirt on him to cause him a serious problem.
I think CN knows LB was groomed for prostitution. I think she knows that LB was killed when that didn't work out. This is the situation, I think, that is keeping people so quiet.
DM seems to have had a lot on the go, with coke, stolen vehicles, an escort business, cash investments in real estate, and his motoring hobby. All this time people thought he was a lazy do nothing (AS) when the guy had 5 irons in the fire...plus that Millardair annoyance. All that time that people thought he was sleeping in and playing video games, he was really running a criminal empire.
If you have to hang around the house all day waiting for people to drop by and pick up, er, stuff...you might log a lot of video game hours.
Millardair no doubt would provide an excellent cover for DM as you know, the consultants were running the show, DM didn't really have to be there, it was really running itself. People are always suspicious of the guy with no known form of employment and a 100" tv. It's always a challenge, when you are retailing drugs, to have a cover that explains your wealth.
