@KatHarzso I thought of you when I saw this story since you've been covering the Dixie and Lassen fires. If he's found guilty this piece of shit should be executed.

From the article:

Authorities launched an investigation of Maynard on July 20, and when he was stopped by police in Susanville on Aug. 3, a U.S. Forest Service agent placed a tracking device under his car, the Bee said.

"Over the course of the last several weeks, Maynard has set a series of fires in the vicinity of Lassen National Forest and Trinity National Forest," Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael Anderson wrote in a detention memo, the Bee said. "... The area in which Maynard chose to set his fires is near the ongoing Dixie Fire, a fire which is still not contained despite deployment and efforts of over 5,000 personnel."

"He entered the evacuation zone and began setting fires behind the first responders fighting the Dixie fire. In addition to the danger of enlarging the Dixie fire and threatening more lives and property, this increased the danger to the first responders, ” the document alleges. “Maynard’s fires were placed in the perfect position to increase the risk of firefighters being trapped between fires."
