STORY: "David Camm trial reaches midpoint," by reporter Grace Schneider, published on September 22, 2013.
GIST: "Levco has argued that blood evidence — including tiny droplets of Jill Camm’s blood on David Camm’s T-shirt — shows he was present during the murders. Levco argues that Camm played basketball, left and carried out the murders, and then returned to finish playing.DNA experts called by the state have testified that the dots of blood, when examined under high-power microscopes, show they are spatter from a gunshot — a fine mist they assert can only travel 4 feet and was driven into the shirt’s weave. Camm’s lawyers have insisted Jill’s blood was brushed onto his shirt when he pulled Bradley from the Bronco to resuscitate him. They also have aggressively challenged witnesses, asking DNA analysts about their educational background, their understanding of National Academy of Sciences views that blood-spatter analysis is subjective and the fact that investigators missed clues that linked Boney to the crimes. Boney was arrested in spring 2005 after detectives combing through the evidence found Boney’s palm print on Kim Camm’s Bronco and his prison-issued sweatshirt. Steve Romines, a veteran Louisville defense lawyer who has followed the trial closely, said in an email that Boney didn’t help the prosecution. Romines described his testimony as “absurd” and added that “the defense has established a very credible argument that the investigation was corrupt.”"
