<P> The first person to jump was a man, and another man was seen kissing a young woman at the window before they both jumped to their deaths . </P> <P> Bodies of the victims were taken to Charities Pier (also called Misery Lane), located at 26th street and the East River, for identification by friends and relatives . Victims were interred in sixteen different cemeteries . Twenty - two victims of the fire were buried by the Hebrew Free Burial Association in a special section at Mount Richmond Cemetery . In some instances, their tombstones refer to the fire . Six victims remained unidentified until Michael Hirsch, a historian, completed four years of researching newspaper articles and other sources for missing persons and was able to identify each of them by name . Those six victims were buried together in the Cemetery of the Evergreens in Brooklyn . Originally interred elsewhere on the grounds, their remains now lie beneath a monument to the tragedy, a large marble slab featuring a kneeling woman . </P> <P> The company's owners, Max Blanck and Isaac Harris, who survived the fire by fleeing to the building's roof when the fire began, were indicted on charges of first - and second - degree manslaughter in mid-April; the pair's trial began on December 4, 1911 . Max Steuer, counsel for the defendants, managed to destroy the credibility of one of the survivors, Kate Alterman, by asking her to repeat her testimony a number of times, which she did without altering key phrases . Steuer argued to the jury that Alterman and possibly other witnesses had memorized their statements, and might even have been told what to say by the prosecutors . The prosecution charged that the owners knew the exit doors were locked at the time in question . The investigation found that the locks were intended to be locked during working hours based on the findings from the fire, but the defense stressed that the prosecution failed to prove that the owners knew that . The jury acquitted the two men of first - and second - degree manslaughter, but they were found liable of wrongful death during a subsequent civil suit in 1913 in which plaintiffs were awarded compensation in the amount of $75 per deceased victim . The insurance company paid Blanck and Harris about $60,000 more than the reported losses, or about $400 per casualty . </P> <P> In 1913, Blanck was once again arrested for locking the door in his factory during working hours . He was fined $20 . </P>
