Change the locks...
When you move into a new house, or this might happen to you...
Another young man, Paul Cox, age 21, left a bar in a New York City suburb and drove off — too fast — with two friends. The last thing he remembers is rounding a curve with one of his friends saying, "You're not going to make it." The next thing he knew he was waking up in his bed with no clothes on. His mother has come in to tell him the police had called her to say they had found her car abandoned. She asked him what happened. He had no idea. His friends told him later that after he hit a guardrail, he got out of the car and walked off. The next day, the community was buzzing about a man and his wife, both doctors, who were stabbed 24 times in their beds.
The Coxes had once lived in the home, and the murdered couple was sleeping in Paul's former room. The murders had occurred on the night of Paul's blackout. He was haunted by guilt. Two years later, his girlfriend persuaded him to go to Alcoholics Anonymous, where he spoke of his fears about that night. Two years later, an AA member went to the police with his story. Detectives matched his fingerprints to those found at the murder scene. He was later tried and convicted and sentenced to more than a century in prison.
I found this on an article related to memory loss and alcohol. Interesting and a little scary.
