Hell, the prosecutor didn’t charge Ziminski (or however the hell his name is spelled) for firing his handgun, which was what started the whole damned scenario in motion. Nope, no charges for that; but, hey, charging him with petty arson is what the DA’s office did. Think Ziminski was “bought off” with that leniency? Enquiring minds want to know.
