boney was hauled back into the interrogation room, and the questioning became more confrontational. you ve got some explaining to do here, charles. your palm print is on that bronco. you re there. now this is the time, this is the place. this is your last stage that you re going to have to tell us what the hell happened there. this is it. this can t be happening. charles! after hours of denial, boney changed his story. yes, he did know david camm. they met playing pickup basketball. then in another round of questioning, the story changed and changed again. finally, boney put himself at the crime scene. the reason why i was there was to bring him the gun. that night? that night. boney said david camm asked him to get an untraceable gun. he said that he was a guy caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. as events started to unfold in the investigation, it became apparent that this case was intertwined between two people. now the prosecutor had a new theory.
he would be the one that was doing. it and this phone call blows up his alibi? yes. the prosecutor moved on to the crime scene and focused on what happened to came in the garage that night. we thought the pants had been pulled down. you accuse the husband of the murder. why are you telling the jury that he probably pull the pants down? it s part of a staged event. kim had not been raped. but the prosecutor argued that her body appeared to have been moved. staged, a cop would know how to do it. trying to get the jury was thinking that someone was there to molester. the investigators never located the murder weapon. the only evidence the state had that the gun was in his hand that night was this. barely physical droplets on the lower left hand of his t-shirt. how those drops of blood got there was the crux of the case blow back. this is what happens when you shoot at close range. you get that blood on your
their apartment, held them at gunpoint to their head, took them out, kidnapped them to the car. luckily, somebody saw him with the gun leading the women out, called bloomington police department. he pleaded guilty again and was sentenced to 20 years in prison for armed robbery, but was released after serving only seven years. by july 2000, three months before the camm murders, he was out on parole and the defense maintains he still had the old compulsion. kim camm fit the profile. yes. he has a foot fetish, and so when they thought at first that it was not a sex crime, we kept saying, well, not everybody targets the same place in sex crimes. kim camm had bruising on her toes. her shoes were on top of the bronco. her pants had been removed. and boney s sweatshirt with his dna was at the crime scene. and it turns out that dna had
and now the defense had fresh scientific evidence that boney actually put his hands on two of the victims. boney s story, of course, was i ran in. i i did this. i never touched anybody. clearly not true. there is something in the field of dna analysis called touch dna. lab experts use human cells to make an identifying hit on a suspect. touch dna from boney s skin cells was found on kim camm s sweater, her underwear, and on her daughter, jill s shirt. the dna conclusively proves that he absolutely fought with kim, that he touched jill. and the defense hoped its cross examination of boney would be still more proof. camm had to steel himself to watch boney on the stand. you re looking at him. right. there was no way for me to actually prepare myself for that. and it was a situation where i really had to think about what was at stake. and doing what was right in that moment. having to sit and there and look at this guy that i knew killed my family and not react. th
