The ten year old boy may be responsible for starting the southern California fire by playing with matches; but he is not responsible for the devastation caused by the fire. The blame lies on the shoulders of the government officials; housing authorities, and home owners, who did not provide adequate planning for fire prevention and protection when constructing homes through out southern California. If criminal charges are brought against anyone, it should be the responsible parties. In my opinion, the child is being used to divert the blame from the real root cause of the devastation. The fire could have been started by a spark from muffler, lightning strike, etc.; it would have had the same devastating results.
