Camm, a former Indiana State Police trooper, is charged with killing his wife, Kimberly, and their two children, Bradley and Jill, in their Georgetown, Ind., house in September 2000.

NewsChannel 32's Abby Miller reported that the prosecution rested its case against Camm Thursday, and the defense began putting on its case.

For the first time during the trial, Kimberly Camm's side of the family spoke out publicly about the case.

Kimberly Camm's sister, Debbie Karem, described what it's been like to sit through the trial and see crime scene photos of her dead sibling, niece and nephew.

"The pictures are hard ... you can't sit there and look and look at them," Karem said. "I look at David and I see nothing. He looks at them like they're an everyday occurrence."

Kimberly Camm's father, Frank Renn (pictured, right), also told Miller what it's like to experience the trial first-hand.

"Of course I don't like the pictures," Renn said. "But when they do show some I do keep my eye on him (David Camm), and he doesn't have any expressions."

"It's kind of like an emotional rollercoaster," Karem said. "You relive a lot and there's only so much you can hear."

Renn said that Camm's behavior has been anything but that of a grieving husband.

"He comes in like he's King Kong or something, like he's a lawyer. He's sitting there prancing around like he doesn't have any feelings about this at all," Renn said.

"To me, there's nothing that they can say that he wasn't there," Karem (pictured, right) said.

During the morning session, defense lawyers grilled the prosecution's key witness -- blood expert Rod Englert.

Miller reported that defense lawyer Mike McDaniel spent four days questioning Englert's credibility.

Thursday, McDaniel focused on Englert's methodology and credentials in reconstructing the murder scene, Miller reported.

Englert testified that Kimberly Camm was killed first, followed by Brad and Jill.

Miller reported that under cross-examination, Englert admitted that he didn't know the size of Jill Camm's head, her height or the size of her body, and that he didn't use those measurements to reconstruct the shootings, Miller reported.

Englert did repeatedly say that the blood evidence points to David Camm as the killer, Miller reported.

Miller reported that Englert ran up a tab of $110,000 for his services, including $8,000 for his testimony.

Lead prosecutor Stan Faith wrapped up the case by referring to "Area 30" -- a spot of blood found on the T-shirt David Camm wore on the night of the murders.

"It's really simple," Faith said. The question is Area 30. If Area 30 is high-velocity impact splatter then he's guilty. If it's not, he's not."

David Camm's in-laws told Miller that they didn't believe that he was a suspect until they heard the prosecution's expert's findings about the T-shirt.

Defense lawyers put four witnesses on the stand Thursday afternoon, Miller reported.

The first three had to do with evidence at the crime scene.

The fourth witness was Jill Camm's teacher, who testified about her demeanor in the days leading up to her death.

The teacher said that she didn't notice anything unusual in the child's behavior, Miller reported.
