went to the window
and I saw a man and a woman
standing across the street
by the bookstore.
I looked at them for a minute.
Nothin' happened,
so I got back to bed.
The second time she screamed
"Please, help me, God.
Please help me.
I've been stabbed."
I went to the window,
and as I got there
she was kneeling down
on the sidewalk
and he was running
up the street.
Did you know
Irene Frost at all?
She worked
for your grandfather.
Oh yeah, oh yeah.
I know the name well.
My grandfather didn't know much
about running the business
and apparently
I... Irene stole
several $100,000 from him
so her name
doesn't sit too favorably
in the Hirsch family.
Now, do you know
if she's alive
or dead at this point?
Oh, she's long dead.
I saw this girl
at the bookstore kneeling
and this fellow had her down
bending over her.
And I hollered,
"Hey, get out of there."
And he jumped up and ran.
He ran like a scared rabbit.
I never saw anybody
take off as quick.
Suddenly, the neighbor's
screaming something
and the man ran away
very fast, near the bus stop.
The poor girl get up slowly..
...and she screamed, "Help!"
And walking slowly
toward the drugstore
and up towards
the back street.
I was still at the window
scared, kind of frozen.
And a few minutes
after that man came back
walking normally
as if nothing happened.
And then he went down
to the train station
and then he came out again
and left in the back
and I could not see anything..
...but I heard
the last 2 screams.
"Help, help."
Hi,
is this the Michael Farrar from Kew Gardens?
Michael, I just
recently found out
that your mom was with my sister
when she passed away.
I was wondering if she'd be
willing to talk to me?
My mom, she really
liked Kitty.
And, you know, she can't get
around no more
but I spoke to her
and she told me stuff
that I couldn't hear when I was
younger, what happened and all.
We'll get into that later.
This was Kitty's
apartment here.
- On this side?
- Right here, yes.
And then yours
is straight ahead?
Yes.
This room here,
this was my room.
Kitty's window is right there.
When I went
to school sometimes
and toast with my mom.
Kitty confided in her a lot.
They were friends
and they talked
about whatever women
talked about, you know.
So that night,
what happened?
I mean, in your house,
what happened?
A... a scream,
a loud, loud scream
a horrible,
blood curdling scream
and it woke me up.
How many people
Just looking at the windows,
about 40, 50
could be 60
because it was so loud.
Uh, the whole neighborhood
