TORONTO – Police are once again searching farmland owned by Dellen Millard, the man accused of murdering Ancaster resident Tim Bosma.

The search started at 8 a.m Monday, led by Toronto Police with assistance from Hamilton Police. Investigators could be seen throughout the day in and around the large barn on the property.

Toronto Police officials wouldn’t say what they were looking for or what new information led them back to the Waterloo-area farm. Police spokesperson Constable Victor Kwong said it involves the case in “its entirety” and could be related to the death of Wayne Millard, the disappearance of Laura Babcock or further information about Millard himself.

Wayne Millard, Dellen’s father, died in November, 2012. Dellen’s friend Laura Babcock disappeared in July 2012.

Hamilton police first searched the farm in May, combing it for Bosma’s body. They found his remains, badly burned, and an incinerator on the property.

Toronto Police searched the property later that month in connection to Babcock’s disappearance but found nothing.

Kwong said Monday it’s unclear how long police will spend searching the farm.

Millard, the 27-year-old CEO of an airline services company, purchased the farm on Roseville Road in Ayr, Ontario in 2011 for $835,000.  The real estate agent who brokered the deal told Global News in May that Millard was planning to build a family home on the property with a woman identified as his fiancée.  It appears no home was ever built on the land. With the exception of the incinerator and a barn close to the road, the property remains mostly empty.

Millard was charged with first degree murder in connection to the disappearance and death of Tim Bosma.

Bosma left his Ancaster home in May to take two men – believed to be Millard and his co-accused Mark Smich, on a test drive of his 2007 Dodge Ram pickup truck. He never returned.
