He loved her and didn't want her to get in trouble so he took over for her while she drove the car. I guess he was too dumb to realize that just being in the vehicle she was just as guilty as him. Tonya was more than happy to let him take the fall. <br /><br />Jim, if you are interested in how the police officer just happened to be in the right place that night, leave a message here and I can provide some interesting information.

I have spoken to him via letters and he has remorse for his actions and is ashamed of what they did.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6528377935446865958.post-69419186097928403432013-04-18T16:19:24.468-04:002013-04-18T16:19:24.468-04:00Thank you for the information.Thank you for the information.Jim Fisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03640110709472034191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6528377935446865958.post-42894662482000712392013-04-18T16:01:17.943-04:002013-04-18T16:01:17.943-04:00They were pulled over because the State Trooper sa...They were pulled over because the State Trooper saw Charlie get out of the van and go behind the Melfa house.(law enforcement had set up officers at buildings/houses that were thought to be possible targets). He (the trooper) watch as Charlie was at the back door striking a lighter or matches. The house did not torch as you wrote above, not that that changes anything because they did indeed set others that torched. Charlie has admitted to 54 of the fires and blamed Tonya for 15. I knew Charlie for a couple of years and I am in utter shock that this has went on. Crazy how well people hide their true self. But, I believe that most criminals hide some aspect of themselves.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
