HAMILTON — The jury has been selected at the trial of the accused killers of a Hamilton man who went missing after taking two men for a test drive in his truck.

Tim Bosma left his home on May 6, 2013 and was never seen alive again. His body was found "burned beyond recognition" more than a week later.

Dellen Millard, of Toronto, and Mark Smich, from Oakville, Ont., are both charged with first-degree murder in Bosma's death.

Lawyers for both men have said they will plead not guilty to the charges.

Seven men and seven women have been selected to the jury with two alternates.

The trial is set to begin Monday and is expected to last at least four months. (CHML/The Canadian Press)
