I think that intentionally setting a fire that *could* or actually does endanger human life should be prosecuted as attempted murder, in addition to any and all other charges laid.
This happens every year, it seems, and the arsonists seem to get away with a LOT more than what they should.
JMHO, YMMV
Well this one has killed a Private Bulldozer Driver trying to help control this mess.

Yep. Agree.
Any fire can kill a fireman - and occasionally the fire truck hits someone on the way to the fire.
