INDIANA (WHAS11) -- David Camm’s lawsuit claiming he was a victim of unlawful investigation, arrest, and imprisonment was dismissed by a U.S. District Court.
Camm, a former state trooper, was tried three times for the murder of his wife and two children. They were found killed in the garage of the Camm home in Georgetown, Ind. in 2000.
He was seeking $30 million in damages, in addition to fees and costs. The lawsuit was brought against member of the Indiana State Police, prosecutors, and other officials.
