I’ve been following this one. Count stands at 36, but the recovery efforts had to be suspended because one of the walls was threatening to collapse. A planned power outage in the local area took place, so that a large crane could be brought in to deal with it, they wanted to be able to move the equipment without having to worry about it bumping into live wires everywhere.
Estimates on how much of the building has been covered vary widely.
I have heard that the city isn’t but the county is, proceeding with a criminal investigation.
Still nothing from Derick Ion Almena. His churlish Facebook post made it to almost 3000 replies last night, almost all of them of the ‘FU’ variety. The post was eventually pulled, and now his FB page has disappeared. His wife’s is still up, but isn’t getting ravaged. The FB point-of-presence for the establishment is still there. Every once in a while someone swoops in and drops a bomb.
I’ve seen selfie videos of the guy, he’s self-absorbed in the extreme, just as his initial Facebook post after the fire would imply.
