Park Lunch

Wesley said that the debt would be forgiven and Tracy not killed if Farnum cooperated with him.

Murder Attempt
Farnum went into the cell of the murder suspect Karen Page and tried to kill her by tying a bedsheet around her throat. When he thought she was breathing her last gasp, Farnum apologized to Page. Suddenly, Page got the strength to scratch at Farnum's eyes, allowing her enough time to scream for help. Farnum was arrested.

The next morning, Farnum's daughter Tracy found his body as she was doing laundry; Farnum had a discharged gun in his hand.
