Suspect #1: Dellen Millard *Charged* 1st Deg Murder 15 May 2013 #1

Strangulation from behind is also a very real possibility. Either way, TB would've had to leave behind some real evidence, in the way of blood or fluids, for LE to feel so confident he died in the truck. I'm not seeing what else would make them feel that way.

I truly believe that the eliminatorwas used , however i do think they didnt have experience with machine,, see clip from toronto sun .. clip says manner in which they disposed of body make the hair on the back of our neck stand up . makes you wonder dont it . what else except some thing like insinerator could shock cops.

So far, police say they have confirmed three calls from the cellphone to people who were trying to sell a truck – two on May 5 and the call to Bosma.

Kavanagh told CP24 that police are working on an “asset forfeiture” aspect of the case.

I'm wondering if the "3rd" truck was the same make and model as TB's.

Just wondering if my fellow sleuths have seen this article today. Sorry for the double post if you have.

wow, so perhaps DM is involved with dealing drugs, that's why he can buy his so many properties!

 

[SnoopCat]

that's what I thought too but according to the Star article (as posted by Eldee, thanks for that) it isn't uncommon for people sitting in jail to move their assets into the names of someone they trust to conduct day-to-day business. But you're right though, the article doesn't mention how DM got the money for said assets in the 1st place, which is part of the asset forfeiture aspect of the investigation. Could very well have been drugs. JMO

Boy, I bet this guy is thanking his lucky stars that he missed the call:

Just to add a quote from there:

“There were at least four test drives of similar trucks,” the source said.
McGreal said police are not aware of a fourth test drive.

 

[FastLikeLight]

A reporter/crime specialist for CP24 twitted some information about LE. Maybe there will be an extended report from her too.

sorry, if I will ruin WS rules

"3rd suspect in #Bosma murder still not identified, according to Staff Sgt. Matt Kavanagh." @suesgambati

It was.

A Toronto man had arrangements to meet Dellen Millard but missed a phone call about a test drive of his Dodge Ram 3500, Const. Debbie McGreal confirmed.

[flipflop]

The Star is aware of two other properties owned by Millard that remain in his name: a six-unit residential property on Riverside Road and the Ayr farm where Bosma's badly burned body was found.

If DM was moving his properties into his mothers hands, why would he leave these 2 in his own. I can understand the farm, as it is in the middle of an investigation, but why the 6 plex, why not hand it over with the others????

In prison, Millard has been placed in isolation "for his own protection," Paradkar added.
"It's very difficult," Paradkar said. "He's got nothing to do.

Well DM....might as well get used to it.....welcome to your future!!!!!

That owner should buy a lottery ticket, with that kind of luck.

the wood chipper.

Was the wood chipper found on the farm?

Was the wood chipper found on the farm?

There were recent pics of it parked outside the hanger, so I assume they found it where it is parked.

Kavanagh told CP24 that police are working on an “asset forfeiture” aspect of the case.

http://www.opp.ca/ecms/index.php?id=55

The Asset Forfeiture Unit was established in 2001 and is an OPP led Joint Forces Operation. It is comprised of 43 officers from the OPP and 16 municipal police agencies from across the province.

Profit is one of the primary motivators for criminal activity. Depriving criminals of wealth acquired through crime is a crime reduction strategy. The criminal economy poses a serious threat to the safety and security of Ontario communities and as such, all deterrents to crime, including asset seizure, should be aggressively pursued.

Investigators of the AFU provide guidance, expertise and leadership on the various methods available to seize assets for their eventual forfeiture. They support various substantive units, such as drug enforcement, fraud, gaming, , weapons, auto theft, regional/detachment crime units, regional/municipal police services, and front-line officers.

According to link here - http://www.hamiltonpolice.on.ca/NR/rdonlyres/46BA6465-01A2-4B9D-AC6F-6C4C88881627/0/August9_AgendaPublic.pdf - Police Services Board Report #10-070, Aug 2010 -

Hamilton Police Service is a member of the Provincial Asset Forfeiture Team (described above) whose mandate is to seize, restrain, and forfeit the proceeds of crime and offence-related property, and to investigate money laundering offences. Most of the Unit's seizures and restraints involve residential houses, cash and motor vehicles... but report goes on to say that the Unit has also restrained buildings containing businesses.

A source with knowledge of the investigation says there were actually four people contacted about test-drives of similar trucks, including Bosma, which police have denied.

So are they denying or have no knowledge of a fourth person called about a truck?

IMO, they may have enough information with the chop shop to proceed with "proceeds of crime" laws. Ontario has a very tough law and that's probably what they're investigating right now. No need to even be convicted-just based on probability : http://www.attorneygeneral.jus.gov.on.ca/english/about/pubs/20070824_CRIA_Update.pdf
