P. v. Kamilchu CA3
Police responding to a 911 call arrived at S. D.’s house, where her former boyfriend, defendant Eduard Kamilchu, was inside the house in violation of a restraining order. Officers entered and positioned themselves at the base of the stairs to the second floor. Defendant, who was upstairs, used kerosene to light a lamp on fire and threw it down the stairs. He then ignited the fumes of the one-gallon kerosene can, engulfing the stairwell, and eventually much of the house, into flames. A jury found defendant guilty of arson of an inhabited structure.
