The defence won't be calling any evidence as a sensational kidnapping trial begins to wind down in Vancouver today.
Five men are accused of abducting Graham McMynn in south Vancouver in April of 2006 and holding him for eight days before police stormed a home in Surrey to rescue him.
Instead of presenting evidence, the defence plans to challenge the Crown's case as circumstantial.
McMynn testified earlier in the trial, but won't be back in court because he's on a honeymoon after marrying his girlfriend Jacklin Tran.
McMynn was married Saturday in the backyard of his wealthy parents' Vancouver home to high-school sweetheart Tran, who had watched helplessly as kidnappers forced her boyfriend from their car and took him away April 4, 2006.
Tran witnessed the kidnapping and gave police the licence plate of the abductors' rental car.
The abduction became a very public drama when his parents went on television to plead for the kidnappers to contact them.
Not since B.C. billionaire Jimmy Pattison's married daughter was grabbed just before Christmas 1990 had Vancouver seen such a high-profile kidnapping.
Cynthia Kilburn was released after Pattison paid $200,000, but her youthful abductors were arrested quickly after taking a limousine on a spending spree.
No ransom demand for McMynn ever came but police capped a massive investigation April 12 by rescuing him from a suburban Surrey home and arresting a half-dozen people in a series of raids.
