A woman accused of burning down a Woodbury man’s house set the fire when he didn’t answer the door after inviting her over for sex, authorities said.

Taija M. Russell, 29, of Blackwood, was arrested Tuesday and charged with attempted murder and aggravated arson in the Aug. 4 blaze, which left the man with first- and second-degree burns.

The man described Russell as a “side chick” in a police report on the incident. Police were alerted to the fire around 4:30 a.m. when the man ran into the Woodbury police station lobby wearing only a T-shirt and covered in soot.

Coughing and out of breath, he told them he had just escaped from his burning home a short distance away on South Barber Street.

After firefighters doused the blaze and rescued the victim’s dog, investigators determined the fire was an arson. A review of messages on the man’s phone and surveillance video led police to Russell, according to the criminal complaint.

Like a bathtub: Slow to warm up, slow to cool down.

Don’t turn on the water if you’re not gonna take a bath.

Ho, ho, ho!

“Just to be clear, we’re not talking about Kamala Harris, right?”

Depends on who you talk to. Try Willie Brown in San Francisco.

Definitely guilty.

Last I heard, the realistic looking robot sex dolls cost about $15,000. Crazies like this make $15K look like a real bargain.

“side chick”

Reminds me of a story about GK Chesterton (a very large man). While WWI was raging, a woman accosted him and asked, "Shouldn't you be at the front??" and he replied, "Madam, if you walk around to the side, you will see that I am."

Lesson learned: Pay your call girl.

I fell in to a burnin’ ring of fire.

Man, if that’s the “side chick” I sure don’t want to see the “front chick”...

Side chick: the one you call when you don't have anyone better available. I'm guessing she was unhappy finding out that's all she was to him.

Did nobody watch Fatal Attraction? :D

“And sobered up after he made the call...... “

My first thought was that he drank himself into a stupor and was passed out by the time she got there.

Some guys just have what it takes aaaaaaand we all know what that is.

Loads of cash? I'm just guessing!

I never found Glenn Close to be an attractive woman, but she’s miles ahead of the perp in this story.
