David Camm

Who is David Camm?

David Ray Camm is a former state trooper who was acquitted and released in 2013 after his third trial on charges of murdering his wife, Kimberly, and children, Brad, 7, and Jill, 5, at their Georgetown, Indiana home on September 28, 2000. Camm became a suspect primarily because of an interpretation of stain patterns on his clothing. He was tried and found guilty of the murders. In 2004 an appeal court ordered a re-hearing of the case on the grounds that testimony about his marital infidelity had been prejudicial, because no clear link to the charges was demonstrated by the prosecution. In 2005 forensic evidence identified Charles Boney as having been at the crime scene. Boney's modus operandi in previous crimes showed similarities to aspects of the murders.

Camm was charged along with Boney as a co-conspirator, Boney was tried first and separately. He accused Camm of the killings. Boney was convicted of the murders and sentenced to life imprisonment. In 2006 Camm was found guilty on the murder charges at his retrial, but acquitted on the conspiracy charge on the orders of the judge.
