Frank is helping his friend move into a downtown Seattle condo. While unloading a large mirror from the
moving truck, the bright sunlight hits the mirror and reflects against the 40th floor of the skyscraper across the
street which temporarily blinds a window washer and causes him to stumble. During this moment of temporary
blindness, lasting about a second and a half, the window washer inadvertently kicks over his window washing
bucket onto the street below. The water and soap from the bucket hit the sidewalk right in front of Bill the
jogger. Bill was unable to stop before stepping on the slippery sidewalk, causing him to lose his balance and fall.
When Bill fell, he hit his head on the sidewalk. Bill died two weeks later from his head injury.
**(Suppose that the law provides: Anyone who causes the death of another person shall be guilty of murder.)
Would Frank be guilty of murder under this law? Could he be charged with another crime?
