Whether the dunbells incident was intentional or not ia debatable there even though it was an accident according to Francis. The 1963 incident may have been a case of vehicular homicide except that the roads were slick that rainy night & may have contributed to the crash. I think Arlene got away with murder TWICE.[/quote]
I think you need to go look up the definition of "murder", and see if "accident" appears anywhere in it.
Oh, wait, I'm sorry, I failed to account for the possibility that Arlene Francis is a criminal mastermind, who managed to intentionally drop a dumbbell on someone's head from eight stories up despite being in another state at the time.
(And the list keeps growing . . .)
