Jurors in the Hamilton trial of two men accused of murdering Tim Bosma have heard more evidence Wednesday from a forensic video expert.
Forensic video analyst Michael Plaxton began testifying Tuesday afternoon about video evidence seized in the case. The first video the court saw showed a dark-coloured vehicle with no hubcaps going south on Trinity Road around 8:46 p.m. on May 6, 2013.
In another video, a "vehicle consistent with the Bosma vehicle," the report says, was seen going north on Trinity Road at 9:20 p.m. ET, followed by another vehicle.
On Wednesday Plaxton testified that a flame coming from a small trailer illuminated the outside of the MillardAir hangar just hours after Bosma disappeared.

Dellen Millard, 30, of Toronto and Mark Smich, 28, of Oakville, Ont., are accused of killing Bosma, 32, who lived in the suburban Ancaster area of Hamilton. Both have pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder.
Bosma was last seen on May 6, 2013, and was missing for more than a week before remains were found on an Ayr, Ont., farm owned by Millard. Earlier in the trial, the Crown told jurors it is believed the remains belonged to Bosma, though tests have not confirmed that.
