Stupid Criminal: A Woman Set a Guy’s House on Fire, Because He “Owed Her $7”

Most people don’t want to be paid back if they buy you a coffee.  But some people will TORCH YOUR HOUSE if you don’t pay your debt.

A 51-year-old woman named Janice Oney was arrested after she intentionally started a fire at a man’s home in Maryland, because he owed her $7.

The man said Janice was “someone he had known for several years,” and she showed up at his home on July 3rd, and “became upset after demanding $7 she claimed he owed her.”  They argued, and she left.

But she returned a few minutes later with a bottle of gasoline.  She poured it on the front door, ignited it, and sped off on a bicycle.  Thankfully, the guy noticed the fire and was able to extinguish it before the authorities arrived.

Janice is facing a slew of charges, including first and second-degree arson, malicious burning, reckless endangerment, and destruction of property.  The guy didn’t say why she thought he owed her $7 or what it was for.
