Just speculatin'-- A professional "torch" would make use of the existing natural gas utility lines (if any) into the building he was hired to destroy. Fire investigators I've known tell me it's almost impossible in those circumstances to prove arson.

Hard for me to believe that Boss continues to have such bad luck with anything Mexican ... But who knows?

yes we could smell it at the sheriff's office and sent the fire department. the twenty minutes they were on scene before water was put on it was the reason it burned not the sheriff's department was being sneaky.

guest, check this out ..........“The owner stated he had (the ventilation system) checked every six months to make sure it was in clear condition and working. But something happened that night,” said Smith. “It was slow burning, and it looked like it might have started in the middle of the night. It went up into the attic area,......... yep boss still owns it .........

What is wrong with you? If you do ot know if something is true or not,(not in this situation). then do not bring it up. Tragedy struck a family and you are saying terrible things. Gossip mills and outright lies, if you want to try to wax poetic then I guess you've found the proper forum, if you want conspiracy theories read a Dan Brown novel.

I know when my mother died I didn't want the sympathy that I would have gotten. So, we went into hiding

Right you are; I should have become a meth dealer and hid tens-of-thousands in cash in my house. Then when I went to prison, had somebody burn it down for the insurance money.

Ol' Jeff is just smarter than me.

I have to ask. Did you get the money out before you burned it down for him, or were you too distraught about losing your dealer?
