, have pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder in Tim Bosma's death.

Bosma disappeared on the night of May 6, 2013, after taking two strangers on a test drive of a black Dodge Ram pickup truck he was trying to sell.

His body was found more than a week later burned beyond recognition.

Last week, the trial heard details of a bullet casing and blood found inside the Bosma's pick up truck.

A detective testified she found blood on the front passenger side, on the dash, in the cracks of the truck's vinyl and on the ceiling above the driver's side.

The Crown alleges Bosma was shot inside his truck and later his body was burned in an incinerator.
