I, at first, thought that David hired Boney.
You make an excellent point regarding that "theory".
Is there a reason, you believe, that Boney could have targeted the Camm family because of David's job with LE? Or do you believe Boney act is solely because he had some prior "infatuation or otherwise" with Karen?
As I said earlier, I do hope they can get to the truth this time around. I'm not sure what I believe about it all now.
Hi Boyz Mum,
It's nice to see you here again!
IMO . . I think he targeted Kim Camm when he saw her at Karem's meat market. I think her sister is married to Mr. Karem and Kim often went to the market. Boney lived in this area at one time. The meat market, if I remember correctly, is located next to a convience store and is close to Knable's liquor store. This is a highly populated area, with banks and restaurants. It's right down the street from the hospital and close to the Target store and another shopping plaza. The area is 'busy' and people come and go unnoticed.
It was said that Boney told someone, another inmate I think, that he was going to 'get a cop'. Also, Kim's vehicle had a police sticker on it that could easily been seen by Boney. I often wondered if Boney knew who Kim was in advance of these crimes. I think it was stated that Boney's mother lived near the Camm residence area and Boney's car was seen that day parked at the end of the road that the Camm family lived on.
JMO. . but I think that he saw Kim at the store and that sparked his interest. I also think that he followed her and found out who she was and realized that she was married to a former police officer, whom he might have thought was still on the force at the time.
I have a lot of problems with having a third trial. Besides the obvious, ruining David's life, I don't think it's fair to put her family thru another trial. I think that Pros. Henderson and Faith are giving them false hopes. If they could have gotten a conviction using 'evidence', they would have done it in the first two trials. I can understand their feelings of wanting the guilty party to be punished, but I do think he is, Boney was sentenced to 225 years.
The other problem I have is that they would be going to trial again based on the same 'evidence' that was unsuccessful two times already, nothing new would be brought to the table. I don't know if it's a faulty case or if the investigation was that screwed up. I do know there was some evidence collected that was 'lost' before trial and never tested. There was also several pieces of evidence that were collected and were never tested before the first trial.
I think, in general, we at WS tend to examine the facts and evidence of cases and use this to base our opinion. But, the public eye doesn't usually work this way. You wouldn't believe some of the rumors that I heard about this case going around town. I think David was found guilty of these crimes in the public eye long before the first trial ever took place. While many people in our town don't care or won't admit it, if it were them, they would feel differently. If this is allowed to continue or happen without consequence, it could be anybody next time. I find that kinda scary!
Have a great day, Boyz Mum!!

ETA: I just wanted to add that Camm's defense was privately funded for the first two trials. Because everything is gone now, a third defense would have to be funded by Floyd County.
