JAMES CARLING - VENTURA LEMONCELLO
The Ventura Limoncello Company was founded in 2007 by James Carling and Manuela Zaretti-Carling. Our mission is to the be premier producer of limoncello liqueurs in the United States. We use the recipe handed down to Manuela from her Nonna in Italy. Ventura County, California, is home to some of the most amazing lemons in the world and their peels make a world class Limoncello. Due to the year round lemon growing season, we produce Ventura Limoncello in small batches all year.
We have also released our Ventura Orangecello liqueur using blood oranges, also grown in Ventura County. Unlike lemons, blood oranges are seasonal in Ventura. Our Orangecello Blood Orange will only be produced seasonally. We work direct with local Ventura County growers who pick tree-ripened citrus to our specifications.
Ventura Limoncello Originale was released in February, 2008 and was initally well received. Our Limoncello was awarded Gold Medal at the 2011 and 2008 San Francisco World Spirits Competition and the Platinum Medal at the 2009 LA SIP Awards. Ventura Limoncello Originale has been America’s highest rated Limoncello 4-years in a row. Ventura Limoncello Crema was relased in October, 2008. It was awarded Gold Medal at the 2010 LA SIP Awards.
Ventura Orangecello Blood Orange was released in May, 2011. It was recognized as Double Gold Medal, “Best in Class” at the 2011 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
Ventura Limoncello’s liqueurs are all natural and handcrafted. We hand peel all the fruit. This ensures only the top layer of peel containing the oils are used. No pith. Our natural processes produce aromatic and full flavor liqueurs. The true sign of an all natural Limoncello is “Il Collarino” (the little collar). This is formed by the citrus oils that gather at the top of the bottle. In our Limoncello Crema, milk fat may gather at the top. A quick shake before serving mixes everything back together in the bottle.

RICHARD SCHLESINGER - 48 HOURS
It was a gruesome murder with an unlikely suspect. In September 2000, David Camm, a former Indiana State Trooper, came home from a basketball game to find his wife Kim Camm and their two children, Jill and Brad, murdered. He immediately phoned the police to report the crime. However, two days later, a still distraught Camm was arrested for the murders. Prosecutors had no motive and an even bigger problem: 11 eyewitnesses claimed that Camm was playing basketball at the time the murders were committed.
The prosecution's case came down to a silent witness: 8 microscopic drops of blood that told a very different story. The juror’s believed the forensic evidence more than the eyewitness testimony….and David Camm was convicted and sentenced to 195 years in prison.
But this story is far from over. It takes several years and some startling DNA results to turn this case on its head. Richard Schlesinger has been following this story from the beginning and talks exclusively with David Camm and all of the other major players in this week’s 48 Hours Mystery, Saturday, at 10pmET/PT.
