Security cameras captured Soghomonian spraying liquid near the outer door of Sanders’s office on the third floor and then “lighting the area with a handheld lighter,” according to court records

First I heard it was inside

It sounds like it was inside the building but outside the office. The article mentions it is a building that was used by other organizations as well, so they'd have separate entrances within the building.

It mentions that the arsonist took a staircase down, guessing probably not the fire escape, and that sprinkler systems inside the building engaged.

Idk i think they should probably use handcuffs and keep him in a jail cell

This sounds like a version of those dunk tank games at the fair, and I'm all for it.

Nah, throw an entire library.

Dudes first name is Shart?

[–] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 12 points 7 months ago

He shan't be doing that again.

Dude has the same name as an executive for Dell. Highly doubt it's the same guy but that's who comes up on Google

Soghomonian?

Hm.
