With all due respect, you need to read the articles about this fire. This is not your typical "kids playing with matches" story.Originally posted by newshooter:
Wow, are arson arrests that exciting where your at? We 2 or 3 arsons every week. Most of them go unnoticed because they're so common and just kids playing with matches.
The fire started at a house where alot of really ugly incriminating evidence against catholic priests was being kept. Coincidence? I think not.
This fire also took out SIX houses. I doubt that was the arsonists' intention, but it turns this into an even bigger story if they catch the guy responsible.
Normally kids playing with matches is usually no big thing out here unless the kids get hurt. But this was no random occurrence IMHO. And yes, when they caught the guy setting multi million dollar houses on fire in a mountain preserve out here, they had a sting operation going to catch the bastard - the comm's were encrypted but I knew they'd call up for marked units when they saw the guy so I camped out nearby and listened up for that. As a result, I was there when they caught the guy which made me quite literally the first member of the media to know it had happened. So it pays to listen to those scanners, and to know what to listen for.
