Late last year, a jury found Millard, 32, of Toronto, and his former friend, Mark Smich, 30, of Oakville, Ont., guilty in Babcock’s murder. The judge in the Babcock trial ordered that the two men serve their two life sentences consecutively, making them ineligible for parole for 50 years. In September 2016, Millard appeared to change his mind, telling McMahon he wanted a lawyer for the Babcock case. In July 2017, Millard brought forward a motion to adjourn the Babcock murder trial in order to retain counsel. Justice Michael Code, the trial judge, denied it.
