Proving a murder case without a victim’s body is getting easier for prosecutors because of technological advances, two legal experts say. When Toronto police this week charged Bruce McArthur, 66, with two counts of first-degree murder, homicide Det.-Sgt. Hank Idsinga acknowledged they were doing so without the bodies of Andrew Kinsman, 49, and Selim Esen, 44. “Today a body-less murder is by no means an easier defence case; it’s as tough as any other case,” he said Friday. Millard and his former friend were convicted of her murder late last year, although her body was never found.
