What’s the status of the arson investigation?
The case is still active, though there’s been no specific update from the Fire Marshall, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms, or the State’s Attorney (who is prosecuting the case)…but that’s not surprising. The investigators are working quietly, behind the scenes, and they can’t share information without jeopardizing the case. The ATF is currently the primary investigatory force. A $15,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible for setting the fire (Call 1-800-32-ARSON & reference case #09-D202950).
