The first engine reached the deadly hardware of South Pasadena. Shortly after the fire of the hardware store in South Pasada, John Orr realized and started taking photos. In October 1984, his attendance outside the center of Ole Ole did not seem to be out of place. He is a arson investigator of Glendale nearby. He is a well -known fire student and the reputation of the coach. He specifically studied how to capture the flames.

One of his motto: "The worm is in the crowd."

Ole's fire killed four people, including a 2 -year -old boy and his grandmother. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's department quickly ruled that this was an accident, which may start with a wire. Orr was angry. He announced that this was an investigation of a single stock. Some people may deliberately set the fire.

When ORR was promoted in the team of Glendale Fire DEPARTMENT, his intuition seemed more and more. In the rubble and burnt earth by firefighters, he has an incredible ability to find the burner's equipment. He bragged and seized more than 40 continuous arson criminals, and explored their methods and psychology in the article "American Fire Journal". When the suspicious fire destroyed dozens of houses in Glendale Hills, he appeared in the news, which was a reassuring face of the department.

In 1991, he was inspired by the novel writing course of Glendale Community College, and he sold an unusual novel called "Original Point". His manuscript Hero, Phil, is a tenacious gun investigator in Los Angeles. Aaron Aaron is a blocked enthusiastic enthusiasm. He found sex wake -up in the fire he set, and escaped the detection with his professional knowledge.

Aaron likes San Anna, he is destroying the ally. His signature device: A lit cigarette, slowly burning into a combustible rubber beads, and gave him 10 minutes to leave the scene.

In Chapter 6, ORR's villain threw this device into the foam cushion of the South Pasadena hardware store, called Cal's. The four failed to find their way out and died of horror.

Orr wrote in the "origin point": "The fire was called by countless accidents." "Aaron hopes that Carl's fire will be arson. He likes unintentional attention from the newspaper report and has not received appropriate recognition I hate death by his mind.

The Federal Investigation Bureau eventually referred to Auror as the most produced arson in the 20th century. When he tried the fire in Ole in 1998, the prosecutor presented the manuscript as a thin memoir of crime. His defense lawyer said in another way: "We live in the script of everyone in Los Angeles or the books they try to sell."

Ore (ORR) grew up in Highland Park, served in the Air Force, and in 1974, at the Glendale Fire Department (at the time was one of the county's lowest salary departments), it was in After being rejected by other agencies. The psychological test of the Los Angeles Police Department found that he was unstable, and the Los Angeles Fire Department discovered that he was unwell.

"He wants to be a real police," said Ed Nordskog, a former bomb investigator who had studied the case. "His crew hated him. He was not a firefighter for Rug. He was chubby, he was very simple, picky and tidy. He did not participate in the prank and robbery made by the firefighters. So he did not get along with these guys."

He attracted arson investigation, insisted on carrying guns, and rose to the captain. He was strongly not attractive, and he put a cigarette box decorated with a skull and cross in the office to prove their danger. In the "origin", his firefighter Gone-Bad is inappropriate in his department.

Ol wrote: "Although it is attractive in physical and exercise, Aaron finds that he is insecure and cannot establish interpersonal relationships." "His conversation is powerless, usually self -centered, leading to ordinary people to avoid him. He has no conventional conventional and even his colleagues found that he is difficult to connect with it. "

In an interview with the Times recently, Ol (currently 75 years old, delivered a speech on the phone of Mulleri Prison) denied that he was describing himself.

"These characteristics are not suitable for me. At the party, I am very comfortable at work. I have many friends."

He insisted that he put together his villain "two or three serial arson criminals I arrested." "When I arrest these types of people, I do my best."

He said that this was all fictional. In Chapter 6, he just followed the suggestion of writing teachers to "make your opponents be as evil as possible."

For decades, he has been making these denials and no rational writers or documentary producers who really want to confess. But considering his statement is that the "origin point" is such a terrible misunderstanding, which brings such a catastrophic consequences, what yes Surprisingly, he did not regret his author identity.

"I don't regret writing it."

Marvin Casey did not interrogate John Orr and arrested him or even tags, which was still alarmed, but Casey did more than anyone else revealed more than anyone else. The dual life of Orr.

In 1987, he issued such a serious intuition that no one wanted to hear. He noticed that a series of suspicious fires coincided with the existence of arson in Fresino. In Casey, Bakersfield, the captain of the fire captain, some people threw the combustion device into artificial flowers. It is composed of cigarettes, matches, and a yellow laptop paper, and fingerprints appear on it.

Is one of the more than 200 participants at the meeting possible?

Casei recalled: "There are lawyers, insurance investigators, and fire investigators." "I don't know who it is." He believes that the arson investigator is likely to be a person who attended the meeting alone. Small secret crime. "

His theory encountered the resistance of other fire officials. He said: "They don't want to believe one of us."

When another fire occurred at the 1989 arson at the 1989 arson detective, Casey crossed the list of participants. This produces 10 names, and ORR is one of them. However, the attempt to match his print with handicraft equipment has returned again, and two years have passed.

In the spring of 1991, a series of Arsons in Los Angeles County led the local police and agents of federal alcohol, tobacco, guns and explosives. Using more complicated technology, the printed matter of crafts matches ORR, but the laboratory believes that the famous researchers just clumsy the evidence.

"They said, 'Tell John Orer to stop dealing with evidence,'" ATF case agent Mike Matassa told the Times. "Obviously, everyone is frozen."

They asked Casey if Ol had the opportunity to touch his evidence. Casey said, it is definitely not.

"When they got fingerprints, they jumped like white white." "They accepted my case. They just picked it up and ran away."

The work team carefully divided the investigation. "At the time, John Orr was basically the God of California's arson investigator," Matasa said. Essence "Everyone knows him."

Some of them must tell some of the Ols of the Greeder Fire Station. One of them mentioned that Orr has been trying to sell novels.

"Have you watched the movie 'JFK'?" Orer asked when the Central Valley of the trial was accepted in 1992. He depicted his book as a strict novel, his fingerprint was a plant, and his case was the government's conspiracy. However, his beliefs led to a 30-year federal prison term. He quickly confessed the guilt of the other three federal arson, including-what is crucial is to put a combustion device on the construction merchant mall in North Hollywood in 1990.

This is the gospel of the Los Angeles County agent. Atti. Michael Cabral is preparing to try Ollyn Kraus with the most serious allegations to try to kill Ole (OLE) employees Caroline Klaus Jimmy Cetina's fire murder, as well as client Ada Deal and her grandson Matthew Troidl.

"I said, 'He just turned to our case,'" Kabrall told the Times. "We are now in our county."

The defense argued that the wiring of faults instead of the fire caused a fire, and Kabral had to explain how the sheriff's department made a mistake in 1984. He attacked the initial investigation. Because of his insufficient, a Chinese scholars who were specially used for 1.5 hours to study the scene before obtaining the wrong conclusion.

Cabral focuses on the paragraphs in the "origin" similar to Ole fire. He said, just like his Alter Ego in the novel, ORR put down the combustion device in Polyfoam in the hardware shop.

Orr was convicted. During the fine stage, the defense guilized the psychiatrist at the University of California Los Angeles. Essence This "will prove to him that he has failed all his life," a psychiatrist testimony.

This is to save his life, but the prosecutor Sandra Flannery refuted this argument, that is, letting him alive means that he will "reappear OLE's fire, and the joy of the place over and over again. feel". Should the jury to him should die. He was sentenced to life imprisonment without parole.

Cabral believes that ORR "exceeds 2,000" fires and believes that he wrote this book in a infamous way. "I don't think he knows that someone will put them together. I think he thinks he will never be caught."

TV producer Kary Antholis has followed the ORR case for 30 years and entertains his possibility of innocence. However, when he studied evidence, he discovered the explanation that Orr wanted-his belief in Olr's internal GUI became stronger. Antholis concluded in the podcast "Firebug", and ORR wrote "Origin" because he wanted to be caught.

He saw "the combination of self -dislike and emptiness" in Olr and "the two things to avoid are the sacred secrets he owned, and there is a infamous story of the story."

In the Mule Creek State prison, Orr quickly answered the information query, even if he knew that the problem would be harsh, the portrait may be ugly. He said, he spoke, not because he liked to pay attention, but because "I don't want to be called a person who refuses to cooperate."

He insisted that the Fed read his manuscript and decided to build him. Ol said, "Well, God, this must be him, because this is the chronology of his crime." "This seems to be too coincidental to ignore them."

Why did he confess? In order to make his wife (now his fourth ex -wife) from bankruptcy. Why allow his lawyer to depict him as Pyro? He has no choice. In fact, he has Tiechraid Anti Bidi, but his lawyer will not listen.

He still writes-writing an article for the prison newspaper "Murkrick Post", headline news, such as "find Christmas cheers in the dull range" and "how to escape prison".

He said: "I have not written novels for a while."
