Yet again, a wildfire is arson

Washington man arrested on arson charge tied to devastating Spokane wildfire

A Washington state man was arrested Monday on a first-degree arson charge in connection with the Old Trails Fire, one of several wildfires that have destroyed hundreds of structures and forced tens of thousands of people to evacuate the Spokane area, authorities said.

Aaron F. Farinacci, 37, was taken into custody after Spokane County Sheriff’s Office detectives and Washington Department of Natural Resources investigators developed probable cause to arrest him, according to the sheriff’s office.

Citizen tips and information from Airway Heights police officers and Spokane County sheriff’s deputies who responded to the initial call and conducted evacuations helped lead investigators to Farinacci, the sheriff’s office said.

Authorities described Farinacci as a convicted felon from Arizona but said they had found no documented criminal history involving fires.

They were blaming this all on ‘climate change’. I guess not. Of course, now they’ll just say the fire was “made worse” from the climate crisis.

UPDATE: According to court records for Aaron Farinacci, the suspect arrested for arson in connection to the Spokane fires, his lawyers asked for a mental health examination after he shot & killed his father because he didn't want to do the dishes.

He was originally charged with murder in the 1st but pled to a reduced charge of manslaughter and served less than 10 years. Some of his court records were sealed while he was in prison

So, he’s a wacko that should probably be in jail, but, nutters in Arizona let him go.

The three fires had collectively destroyed at least 700 structures and prompted evacuation orders affecting approximately 67,000 people as of Monday, according to The Associated Press. More than 1,000 firefighters were battling the blazes.

Many people are wondering about the area where it was started, which is near where a data center was going to be built, and we know how Democrats have been scaremongering against them, going well beyond opposition.
