The ex-boyfriend of a missing woman says the last call she made was to Dellen Millard, the man charged in the death of Tim Bosma.

Toronto police confirmed Friday that they are investigating the case of Laura Babcock, 23, in connection with Millard.

Shawn Lerner, whose relationship with Babcock ended in January 2012, told the Star that Babcock’s last call from her cellphone was to Millard.

Millard, 27, of Etobicoke is charged with first-degree murder in the death of Bosma. The 32-year-old Ancaster man disappeared May 6 after posting his Dodge Ram for sale and taking two men for a test drive.

Babcockwas last seen in Toronto on June 26, 2012.

According to Babcock’s phone records, she and Millard exchanged a series of calls which ended July 3, 2012, Lerner told the Star.

Lerner said Babcock was struggling with depression and looking for a place to live after moving out of her parents’ home.

He said he confronted Millard on July 27, 2012, with Babcock’s phone records. Millard eventually admitted he had been talking to Babcock, the ex-boyfriend said.

Lerner said mutual friends told him Millard and Babcock were in a relationship.

Meanwhile, the coroner’s office said Thursday the investigation into the November 2012 death of Millard’s father, Wayne Millard, is still ongoing. Toronto homicide detectives have reopened the investigation into Millard’s death, said Hamilton police Det.-Sgt. Matt Kavanagh.
