breeze coming off the sea is keeping it away at the moment

64 yr has had fatal heart attack while trying to protect his house

and the b******d accused is out on bail

[Kaz]

He should be done for murder, or at least manslaughter He must be the most unpopular man in Madeira, I hope he sleeps with one eye open

[victor]

fireman 45 has died in hosp

agree Kaz ,how they can not call this murder is beyond me

[Kaz]

[victor]

earlier reports of him getting bail not true-he has been remanded to prison--hopefully for sorting out

[meriad]

I just don't get the mindset of some people. Just what was he thinking?

Agree that at the very minimum he shoudl be done for manslaughter x3 (or is it 4 people Vic?) as well as arson and whatever else they can throw at him. Would be surprised though if he makes it out that jail alive.


Still keeping fingers crossed that this is all under control soon Vic - so so much damage

[victor]

4 people Meriad,including 1 fireman died from injuries,another victim an old lady in her 80's who was bedridden and burnt before emer services could get to her

it if ain't murder ,what is it?

police have 4 other suspects

[meriad]

that is beyond heartbreaking Vic - so sad

[Workingman]

4 people ... it if ain't murder ,what is it?

At the very least it must be manslaughter, and there will be other things in the book to throw at him/them, enough to lock them away for a very long time.
