FYI, because shadows are reused, the only way to be sure there is no 
corresponding job would be for the queue to be empty. Can you kill them, 
yes, use SIGKILL. If there is a corresponding job the Schedd is supposed 
to restart the Shadow. Let us know what version of Condor you are 
running so we can keep an eye out of this situation in the future.

Best,
