thought it was jill. laying there. i didn t realize it was kim until i ran out of into the garage, out of my truck. and i saw was kim. it s too much to absorb, how do you take it in? it s indescribable what was going through my mind. i cant put it in to words. can we still, bent slightly at the waist, along pool of blood running through her head. the doors to her bronco were open. when you look in the vehicle? i don t remember how long it was. but after checking on kim, being assured in my mind that she was gone, i just suddenly thought about the kids. where the kids? and my first instinct was to look into the bronco. and i got up on the passenger seat and i could see more into the back, and that s when i saw brett and jill. jill, still buckled in, which slumped over. there was blood in her hair. next to her, brad seemed to be
i said what? what are you talking about? but are you saying? julie went straight to her parents house. mom had all the pictures of brad and jill that she could gather up and was holding them and just sitting on the floor and rocking and saying, my babies, my babies, they ve killed my babies. somebody killed my babies. david sent his uncles to tell kim s parents, janice, and frank ran. when they rang the doorbell, what can this be? well it can t be good. so, when i go out and i opened the door and i see him standing out there and i think, my mind went blank. i they asked me to come out, there are so i go out, there and some says we ve got some bad news. kim, brad and jill have been shot. i slip down in a sitting position and i cried, i can believe it.
two kids, brad and jail. guilty, again. guilty, again. with the same inflammatory evidence. just such a heinous accusation. but the saga was far from over. david counts uncle still refused to retreat. so, you go to david said we tried. i said, we re not done david. if the hang in there. we re not done. coming up. they certainly weren t done. prosecutors weren t done either. the placement of the sweatshirt led you to believe that david can put it there. and charles monet? he was just getting started. he wants me to deliver a second handgun. it was overwhelming. i tried a lot of cases over the years. a lot of death penalty cases, murder cases. i never tried anything like this. when dateline continues. and take. it. on. .with rinvoq. rinvoq a once-daily pill can dramatically improve symptoms. rinvoq helps tame pain, stiffness, swelling.
then who was? the defense had its answer. it was the person who owns that gray sweatshirt. the one that was lying by brad s body the night of the murders. defense attorney mike mcdaniel had recognized a sweatshirt as prison issue. in the color of this sweatshirt is the word backbone and i m thinking, okay, that s a nickname. tests on that sweatshirt reveal dna from various people, including an unknown male. but the prosecutor said there was no match. that male dna was run through the national database. still, it seems to be a breaking point. proving that someone else was in the garage that night. we knew that that was probably the key to solving this. we didn t know that person by name, but by god we knew him by dna profile. finally, it was up to the jurors. as reporters lingered in the hallway, the jury deliberated for three days. guilty, guilty. david cam was found guilty of killing his wife and children. the jury comes back and
clad over the seat. was it apparent even in your shock that this was a gunshot event? i do not know. i did not know how they had died. so you re in over the consul? on top of the consul, that s how i grabbed bread. i thought maybe he would have a chance. david had been an indiana state trooper for almost 11 years. that night in the garage, david says, his police training kicked in. it seemed to him that his daughter jill was dead. but there was even a whisper of a chance for his son brad, he knew he had to get him out of the bronco and give him cpr. i picked him up, pulled him to me, and turned around and got back in the same way i went in. put him down on the garage floor and started working on him? exactly. were you getting any signs? i just remember looking at his face.
