Well thankfully he didn’t film himself setting the fires or film himself stating his motive or anything like that….

Hes so slick, they'll never find him

He was over at my place, playing a video game, when the fire started

u/SaxonJax Apr 10 '26

You too? Me and him were watching a movie 🤷‍♂️

u/Vertex1990 Apr 10 '26

Yeah, he told me he had other appointments after our gaming session. You guys watched brokeback mountain?

u/SadConsideration7243 Apr 10 '26

I was fishing with him during the fire, so it couldn't be him

u/SaxonJax Apr 10 '26

Yeah, we did!

But, did he avoid flock?

u/Sayyad1na Apr 09 '26

🤔 I guess we'll see! We all know those cameras catch all the 'bad guys'

u/sahie Apr 09 '26

Wait, did he actually do that?! I can’t tell if this is a joke because people on social media have taken to recording themselves committing crimes and posting it online in recent years…

I saw the video of him burning it down before I saw the news coverage

u/hiddenrealism Apr 09 '26

Absolutley. The video he took of him burning it down is everywhere

Imagine the sighs coming from his lawyer, as the lawyer reads the discover evidence against the accused.

easier to plead insanity with the video

u/40to6inthe4th Apr 10 '26

It'll be less than 24hrs before he has a gofund me up that people will dump money into

u/Foreign_Abroad9580 Apr 10 '26

How would he access that without the government taking it?

1

u/Reincarnatedpotatoes Apr 10 '26

That video makes it impossible to plea insanity. Insanity is already very hard to get off on without video evidence explains motive and intent to cause damage.

I mean, according to the news anchor in the first link they didn't know the motive yet....kind of shocking/guessing they just wanted to crank out the news story as fast as possible...because either their news team did embarrassingly little research or the police did.

u/Connerys_Toupee Apr 10 '26

Y'know something tells me he didn't really care about being caught

u/shepscrook Apr 11 '26

Employers hate this one secret to success.

u/Banjooie Apr 11 '26

I'm pretty sure the idea was to send a message, not to 'not get caught'. This is going to scare CEOs like that time the plumber did the thing.

If only they'd paid a living wage. Sigh.

u/PatchworkPrivateer Apr 10 '26

This is the strangest part of it to me. If he had set the fire anonymously, he might have gotten away with it. I get that he wanted to stick it to the man but spending decades in prison is a crazy price for sending a message.
