Let be the first exit from . On that compact interval the drift is bounded. The Girsanov theorem therefore gives, through every fixed time , a probability measure equivalent to the original one under which the stopped process has Brownian increments before .
If has Lebesgue measure zero, the normal distribution of Brownian motion givesSince , countable subadditivity gives . Thus the killed law at time is absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure on .
