Fourth Clue: clock confusion
_______

Third Clue: crossroads

_______

Second Clue: peacekeeper
_______

First Clue: adultery
_______

Following is the primary clue for Mystery Location No. 146:

The plain white house with the one-story porch across the front has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, an above-ground pool with deck ... and a dark secret. Not so long ago, all members, save one, of the family who lived in the home were brutally murdered. The man charged and convicted of the crime said he didn’t do it, so a second man was charged and convicted, but he said he didn’t do it either.

Each day, a new clue will be posted until someone names the location, providing the street address, city and state, as well as the room or apartment number, if applicable, (or province/country if located outside the US) and an explanation as to how each clue applies to the location. If no one correctly names the location, the contest will end at midnight (Eastern time), Saturday, April 6, 2019. Please note, the contest ends at midnight in the Eastern Time Zone. If you live in a different time zone, please make adjustments so you will know what time it ends where you are.

You may discuss the location with other members by posting your comments using the “reply” option, but please do not attempt to name the location until you are absolutely certain of your answer and able to post the street address, city, state, etc., along with a photo, or link to a photo, of the Location.

For those of you who remember our old Mystery Locations contest, the point system has changed. Now, if you name the location on the first day, i.e., Sunday, before midnight (ET), you will receive 7 points. Thereafter, the points will depend on the number of clues that have been provided when you name the Location as indicated below. If you name the Location after the first clue, you will receive 6 points, etc., as indicated below. However, after the Sixth (last clue) is provided on Saturday, you must name the location before midnight (EST) Saturday night. Upon accumulation of sufficient points, winners may choose an item from our Prize List.

Sunday (or before First Clue is provided) - 7 points
First Clue (Monday) - 6 points
Second Clue (Tuesday) - 5 points
Third Clue (Wednesday) - 4 points
Fourth Clue (Thursday) - 3 points
Fifth Clue (Friday) - 2 points
Sixth Clue (Saturday before midnight) - 1 point

If you wish, you may collaborate with another member and if the two of you win, points will be divided between the two of you.

This contest is meant to be fun, so, as before, we ask that you conduct yourself accordingly. To prevent any accusations of favoritism, Steve has been advised of the name and address of the Location and will not be participating in this week’s contest.

Once I realized it was in Indiana, this one was easy, except the street address, because I had seen it on both Dateline and 48 Hours.

This is 7534 Lockhart Road, Georgetown, Indiana, where Kimberly Camm and her two children, ages 7 and 5, were murdered in the garage of their home on September 28, 2000. David Camm, who was an Indiana State Trooper (a peacekeeper), was arrested, charged and convicted of the murders, though he swore he didn’t kill his family. The prosecution claimed Camm’s long history of adultery was a motive for the murders, but it was bloodstain pattern evidence that convinced the jury that he was guilty. In 2005, additional DNA was found at the scene and a black man, Charles Boney, was charged and arrested. Boney first said he didn’t commit the crime, then told several different stories. He was tried and convicted, then testified against Camm, who was found guilty again. In 2013, Camm was tried for the third time and this time, he was acquitted.

The motto of the state of Indiana is “The Crossroads of America.”

Some Indiana counties use Central Time and others Eastern Time and some do not observe Daylight saving time, though I believe the state officially adopted Daylight saving time. David Camm said he made a call at a specific time that would have placed him at another location when his family was killed, but because of Indiana’s clock confusion, the time of the call was incorrect.

I've seen that case on both Dateline and 48 Hours, more than once I think.
