If you’re going to make a deathbed confession, make sure you’re actually going to die. James Washington, while suffering a heart attack recently, admitted to killing a woman in 1995. Perhaps the stress of his crime had caused his heart attack in the first place, because once he got it off his chest, he went on to recover! The bad news is that Washington, already in a Nashville prison on an unrelated sentence, made his confession to a prison guard. Washington tried to take back his statement after he survived, but it was too late. The guard relayed Washington’s words in court and Washington was found guilty of the murder late last month. He now faces a life sentence. Never assume you’ll get away with murder!
