A decision in Dellen Millard’s first-degree murder trial in the death of his father, Wayne Millard, in Toronto has been delayed until this fall.\u00a0\u00a0Ontario Superior Court Justice Maureen Forestell\u00a0said Thursday morning she would not be in a position to give a\u00a0decision\u00a0until Sept. 24.\u00a0\u00a0Forestell\u00a0previously said she had a full caseload through most of the summer.<\/p>\n
Millard’s\u00a0trial is being held\u00a0in front of a judge alone, as Ontario’s attorney general agreed\u00a0that\u00a0the Toronto man’s\u00a0previous high-profile trials would make it difficult to find fair jurors. Closing submissions marked the end of evidence at\u00a0the three-week\u00a0trial\u00a0on June 22.<\/p>\n
Wayne Millard’s death\u00a0was originally ruled a suicide. He\u00a0was found at his home at 5 Maple Gate Court in the Toronto suburb of Etobicoke\u00a0on\u00a0Nov. 29, 2012, after he was shot in the eye. At the time, Dellen Millard was living at his father’s home.<\/p>\n
The 32-year-old\u00a0wasn’t charged in his father’s death until 2014, after police started investigating the slayings of both Tim Bosma and Laura Babcock, a Toronto woman who had been involved with Dellen.<\/p>\n
Millard is serving consecutive life sentences for those slayings.<\/p>\n
