Director Billy Wilder hit the mark when it came to lust getting off the rails and ending in bloodshed.

The fatal woman ended up being killed by her lover, scapegoat Walter Neff (Fred MacMurray), who got a date at the San Quentin gas chamber. Edward G. Robinson as Barton Keyes Insurance Investigator should have won an Oscar.

Double compensation was based on the book of ex New York Post rewrite the man James M. Cain, who linked him to the real-life black widow Ruth Snyder.

And on the murder lists in this country, women increasingly play a leading role.

On Saturday, Victoria Rolfe, 25, and her boyfriend, Ryan Cannon, 27, both of Hamilton, were arrested and charged with second-degree murder for the murder of Jacob Ardagna, 47, on October 27. .

Cannon, according to Tay, Ardagna’s daughter, is the son of the murder victim. Tay Ardagna used Facebook like we do these days. None of the charges against the couple have been proven in court.

“So the truth is out, my own brother Ryan Cannon murdered our father,” Tay wrote on his page.

Tay Ardagna added: “She had to be the last to see my dad alive. You took a loving father, son, brother, cousin, and friend away from us. “

What shocked her daughter with horror is what her father’s last minutes could have been if the allegations are true.

“I can only think of his final moments, how he was thinking about how his own son could do this to him, the son that he loved very much. Ryan, he talked about us all the time, he only thought about his children. You are another kind of evil to be able to do this to such a kind and gentle soul. Question, was it worth it? I’ll see you both at your trials. “

So far, the police have been quiet, but what is known is that on October 27 emergency personnel were called at 2130 King St. by an unresponsive man inside an apartment. Ardagna was pronounced dead at the scene.

Detectives later discovered that the victim had visible wounds on her body. The apartment indicated that there had been a disturbance and the police determined that Ardagna had been killed.

On June 13, 2021, Victoria Rolfe posted a photo of the couple on her page with the letter: “My heart and my soul; my soul mate. I will love you forever Ryan Cannon. “

He replied, “Soul mates definitely baby xo.”

Thirteen people liked the interaction with saccharin.

Now, like Phyllis Dietrichson and Walter Neff, the cops say they have approached another rogue Romeo and Juliet.

It’s been that kind of year at Hamilton.
