Victor Narramore was an insurance adjuster for Über-Life Life Insurance and the first victim of Madeline McLean. The reason he was killed was that he rejected a request for financing for a heart transplant for Abner Newsome. When he was murdered, he was killed with "kindness": that is, with a baseball bat with the word "kindness" carved into it. Then his body was just dumped in the snow in front of the Newsomes' house.
