Mark Smich must have buried gun in 'magical forest,' Millard's lawyer says
By Adam Carter, CBC News May 16, 2016
Mark Smich must have buried the gun he believes was used to kill Tim Bosma in "some magical forest," Dellen Millard's lawyer suggested in court Monday because the accused killer can't remember anything about where he left it.
Dellen Millard's lawyer, Nadir Sachak, pressed Mark Smich in a Hamilton court about the gun he buried that could have helped determine who actually shot Tim Bosma.
"Is this some gun burial-induced amnesia?" Sachak said. "You seem to have forgotten every detail except it's buried in some magical forest."

'Did you shoot Tim Bosma?'
Sachak also played portions of video from Smich's interrogation by Hamilton police. In the video, Smich looks haggard, and is wrapped in a blanket.
"Where is that gun right now, Mark?" Hamilton police Staff Sgt. Matt Kavanagh asks in the 2013 video. "You can point me to evidence right now."
Smich would not look up, or respond to that question.

Smich says Millard pulled trigger
Last week, Smich told the jury his version of Bosma's last few hours, saying Millard pulled the trigger and killed Bosma. He said he buried the gun in a panic after Millard was arrested, but can't remember where. He also said he did not help Millard put Bosma's body in a livestock incinerator, giving Millard the excuse that he had a sore shoulder.

Noudga lied under oath, Smich says
As Smich continued testifying, Millard watched his onetime friend intently while taking notes. At one point, Smich called Millard's former girlfriend Christina Noudga "a liar." Noudga previously testified that she spoke to Smich on May 10, and that he was in a panic.
