The Open Door, the Shoe, and the Will Signed by a Dead Man

The morning a paperboy found a size eleven brown dress shoe in an open doorway, an eighty-one-year-old man had already been dead for days - and a new will had been filed naming a witness who had died three days before the document was dated. How did a will dated December 19, 2010, bearing a dead man's name as witness, nearly redirect nearly two million dollars away from the decedent's named heir?

In this episode, we present the sequence of events from the open door on Crestfall Avenue to the probate contest, following the people, the documents, and the forensic work that exposed the contradiction at the heart of the case. What forensic detail unspooled a carefully positioned fraud and proved the will could not be genuine?

Person: Walter Pryce
Date: January 9, 2011
Location: 412 Crestfall Avenue, Dunmore
Case: 2011-PR-0047
Person: James Cutter (deceased December 16, 2010)

- The front door at 412 Crestfall Avenue was standing open at 6:14 AM on January 9, 2011.
- Walter Pryce, age 81, had been dead for three or four days when found by the paperboy.
- A will dated December 19, 2010, was filed on January 12, 2011, by a man named Frank Seward.
- The filed will named James Cutter as a witness, but Cutter died on December 16, 2010, three days before the will's date.
- Examiner Carol Hutchins compared the will signature against 47 authenticated Pryce exemplars from 2004-2010.
