"[NARRATOR] In The New York Herald, November 26, year 1911 there is an account of the hanging of three men." " They died for the murder of Sir Edmund William Godfrey husband, father, pharmacist, and all-around gentleman resident of Greenberry Hill, London." " He was murdered by three vagrants whose motive was simple robbery." " They were identified as Joseph Green Stanley Berry and Daniel Hill." " Green, Berry, Hill." " And I would like to think this was only a matter of chance." " As reported in the Reno Gazette, June of 1983 there is the story of a fire the water that it took to contain the fire and a scuba diver named Delmer Darion." " Employee of the Nugget Hotel and Casino, Reno, Nevada engaged as a blackjack dealer, well-liked and well-regarded as a physical, recreational, and sporting sort Delmer's true passion was for the lake." " As reported by the coroner, Delmer died of a heart attack somewhere between the lake and the tree but most curious side note is the suicide the next day of Craig Hansen volunteer firefighter, estranged father of four and a poor tendency to drink." " Mr. Hansen was the pilot of the plane that quite accidentally lifted Delmer Darion out of the water." " Added to this, Mr. Hansen's tortured life met before with Delmer Darion just two nights previous." " All I need is a two." " All you need is a deuce." " All right." " That is an eight." "[ DELMER] Glad you like my work." " All right." " Moment of truth..." "[NARRATOR] The weight of the guilt and the measure of coincidence so large Craig Hansen took his life." "[ Gunshot]" "And I am trying to think this was all only a matter of chance." " The tale told at a 1961 awards dinner for the American Association of Forensic Science by Dr. John Harper, president of the association began with a simple suicide attempt." " JOHN:" " Curiosity." "[ NARRATOR] Seventeen-year-old Sydney Barringer in the city of Los Angeles on March 23rd, 1958." " The coroner ruled that the unsuccessful suicide had suddenly become a successful homicide." " To explain, the suicide was confirmed by a note in the right hip pocket of Sydney Barringer." " At the same time young Sydney stood on the ledge of this nine-story building an argument swelled three stories below." "[ Man And Woman Shouting]" "The neighbors heard, as they usually did, the arguing of the tenants and it was not uncommon for them to threaten each other with a shotgun or one of the many handguns in the house." "[ FAYE] I'm gonna put you down!" "[ NARRATOR] And when the shotgun accidentally went off..." "You asshole!" "[ NARRATOR] Sydney just happened to pass." " What?" " Shut the fuck up!" "[ NARRATOR] Added to this, the two tenants turned out to be Faye and Arthur Barringer Sydney's mother and Sydney's father." " When confronted with the charge which took some figuring out for the officers on the scene of the crime Faye Barringer swore she did not know the gun was loaded." " I didn't know." " She always threatens me with the gun, but I don't keep it loaded." "[ DETECTIVE] And you didn't load the gun?" " Why would I load the gun?" "[ NARRATOR] A boy who lived in the building sometimes a visitor and friend to Sydney Barringer said that he had seen, six days prior, the loading of the shotgun." " Ricky, come here a minute." "[ NARRATOR] It seems that all the arguing and fighting and all of the violence was far too much for Sydney Barringer and knowing his mother and father's tendency to fight he decided to do something." "[ Gun Clicks]" "He said that he wanted them to kill each other and that's all that they wanted to do, kill each other and that he would help them do that if that's what they wanted." "[ NARRATOR] Sydney Barringer jumps from the ninth-floor rooftop." " His parents argue three stories below." " Her accidental shotgun blast hits Sydney in the stomach as he passes the arguing sixth-floor window." " He is killed instantly, but continues to fall only to find, five stories below, a safety net installed three days prior for window washers that would've broken his fall and saved his life if not for the hole in his stomach." " So Faye Barringer was charged with the murder of her son and Sydney Barringer noted as an accomplice in his own death." "[ Faye Grunting]" "And it is in the humble opinion of this narrator that this is not just something that happened." " This cannot be one of those things." " This, please, cannot be that." " And for what I would like to say, I can't." " This was not just a matter of chance." " Ha, ha." "[ Faye Shouting]" "These strange things happen all the time." " In this big game that we play, life, it's not what you hope for." " It's not what you deserve." " It's what you take." " I'm Frank T.J.
