Awakened by stairs creaking, Camp confronted Letendre and a struggle ensued, Gagne said. At some point, Camp, who lawfully owned several firearms, grabbed a Sig Sauer P365 semiautomatic pistol and shot Letendre in the torso. Letendre then fell to the floor, where investigators believe he remained. Neither Camp nor his girlfriend reported that Letendre said anything about what he was doing there.
Camp’s girlfriend had already called 911, and Gagne said the line remained open for several minutes.
“We contend you can hear the first gunshot,” he said. After 8½ minutes, the girlfriend can be heard screaming that another shot has been fired, Gagne said, though audio evidence of the shot is unclear.
That second shot, to the back of the head while Camp was lying on the kitchen floor, which Gagne termed “extremely troubling,” was the focus of the investigation.
“The grand jury was asked to consider the legality of the second shot,” he said, because the first shot was considered to be self-defense.
