Gary Maynard, 47, taught Criminal Justice courses at Santa Clara University and Sonoma State University, FOX 40 of Sacramento reported, citing information from Maynard’s bio page on the Sonoma State website.
That page was not working on Tuesday night.
Maynard was facing charges of arson in connection with the Ranch Fire as well as unauthorized entry into a closed area, FOX 40 reported. He was arrested Saturday following an investigation that began in July, according to the station.
Court documents indicate that the Ranch Fire and six other fires started between July 6 and Aug. 7 near the Lassen National Forest and Shasta-Trinity National Forest, both in Northern California. The three most recent fires, including the Ranch Fire, started in the area of the Dixie Fire, the report said.
"The area in which Maynard chose to set his fires is near the ongoing Dixie Fire, a fire which is still not contained despite the deployment and efforts of over 5,000 personnel," Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael Anderson wrote in a memo, according to FOX 40.
Anderson argued that Maynard should remain in custody pending further legal action.
I'm if the opinion that ALL of the west Coast fires are purposely and purposefully started by humans and not nature.
Gotta get those Federal relief dollars somehow. The appropriated amounts just aren't enough to bail them out.
That, but mainly, it drives the narrative that "muh manmad climate change is real, reeeeee." This, coupled with theh horas mismanagement of the Forestry Division and even grosser mismanagement of California's watershed tables, and you have a recipe for widespread "drought," "climate catastrophes," etc.
I suspect this assht isn't the only one. After all, for the last 5 yrs, or so, the whole Wheat Coast has been under constant attack from arsonists.
Which also leads me to believe Antifa when [they] said that the East Coast would be next. But, we've had near daily rains this whole year inundating the Eastern Seaboard, which makes me wonder if HAARP is being controlled by the white hats now.
There hasn't been one story of a supposed wildfire on the East Coast, that I'm aware of, when all of last year we were being threatened with "East Coast is next."
Mate, remember Brazil and the screeching media going on about muh lungs of the Earth despite when looking at it there was no more serious amount of acreage burning than any other year?
What happened was Bolsoranno cut funding to a bunch of err conservation NGOs ran by the usual suspects and Macron and Merkel and Thunberg had a meltdown over it saying we need to treat amazon fires like crimes against humanity and prosecute at the ICC or some dumb shit.
Bolsoranno says OK cool, I think NGO faggot arsonists are starting the fires, I'm sending in the army now to start shooting them on sight since the jungle is so important to you all.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO they screamed don't do that. Macron apologised and sent him 7m euros or something, which buys about a third of a firefighting water carrier.
So yeah, you're right until proven otherwise, fucking anarchist arsonists. They should be shot on sight (lawfully).
People wonder why I loathe Antifa/BLM and wish them ill.
They burned down the place I always spent my summers as a kid, I wish them a speedy trial.
Sure it will grow back but it will never be the same, especially since the buildings got burned down.
They were onto him:
Sounds good. And while I don't want any more fires set, dropping him in the middle of one of his fires might be a good punishment.
Legit think burning people at the stake serves a functional purpose in society. The intelligentsia start getting very retarded about things like toddlers consenting and stuff when they've not seen someone in the public square recently.
I have no clue what this means.
People who suggest fucking your kids should be burned at the stake to keep the rest of them in line.
Ah, now I understand.
It's not cruel and unusual since he is being made to put out his own fires.
Give him the same supplies antifa uses "to help the firefighters" like a 2 gallon gas can "for the fire engines" or a small personal amount of water bottles "for all the firemen" plus a firefighter costume from Party Galaxy. If they want to dress up as firefighters just so they can kill many innocent men, then they can dress up as firefighters and be forced to do the job those men would have to do.
Also many of them probably support slave drivers like Kamala, watch them have a change of heart when suddenly they are the ones who have to risk burning to death to clean up their own mess by order of the court, not some guy who sold some pot once.
Now let's see if a money trail can be established.
Yeah, that tells me either, 1) he had accomplices that got caught or decided to rat him out, 2) he inadvertently ratted himself out to someone who then informed the police, 3) he was being paid to start these fires and his handlers betrayed him in time to serve as some sort of distraction (like, say, Lindell's Cyber Symposium).
I'm gonna go out in a limb and say it's a mixture of all 3. The timing on this is too good to be anything but a distraction. Yesterday's news from the Symposium was too great, too powerful, and too truthful for [them] to just ignore it.
Whatever the reason for the timing, or whatever else, this guy was a supreme idiot and deserves his fate.
Personally, if there's any deaths resulting from those fires, he needs the death penalty. Life in prison at the very least.
Parallel construct.
Meaning, they don’t want to disclose sources and methods, so they come up with alternative explanations.
They should have had probable cause to be tracking this guy, but they probably didn’t.
How .any times did they let him get away with it? Shit guys one arson is enough to prosecute.
Hopefully trying to build a case where he's getting orders from an organised body.
Sure this Lib loves the environment, trees, animal rights and hates CO2 footprint and to prove his point created the 2nd largest fire in CA history to prove he hates Trump voters by burning Greenville off the map.
I would call him an immediate suspect in the Paradise Fire. I never believed the cover story about power lines as the cause.
It was pre-meditated murder, IMHO. >https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camp_Fire_(2018)
Netflix even made a movie about it, glorifying the sacrifice.
THESE PEOPLE ARE SICK
Always.
This guy needs to leave the planet! I am so disgusted by "humans" like this.
California has ARSON wildfires, NOT CLIMATE CHANGE FIRES.
Antifa types caught setting fires, walking around with only matches, spent fireworks in the middle of burnt areas, videos of Antifa pretending to help firefighters with drinks, etc. but have propellants in van and are laughing.
Then, Newsom announces and implements rolling blackouts for extended periods trying to "prevent climate change wildfires" so you have no energy.
FIRE-SCAM.
Can't forget the same vudence of DEW's. Only homes burnt out, cars melted, with no trees surrounding those areas being turned to ash.
I wouldn't say that qualifies as evidence of anything. I saw with my own eyes similar results in the Oakland hills fire in the 1990s. Cars melted, with completely green trees standing nearby. One house reduced to rubble, next door to a house without even any smoot marks on it.
A professor? Once again proving these people aren't educated theybare indoctrinated. Those titles have become not only meaningless, but likely point to someone who is entirely overinflated in their opinions of themselves and is truly an idiot. .
California will likely let him out on bail of $100... so he can set a few more fires before his initial court hearing.
This was taken last fire season when there were all those Antifa people setting fires in Oregon so I would think they are doing it again.

in 2001 the Julian fire was found to be set by a forestry worker who was afraid she would lose her job. (spoiler she wound up losing it anyway....)
Hang that piece of trash.
Yes, we have known about the true source of all these fires, and so now they will be found out as the demons they really are. Arrest, arrest, arrest!
The greek fires probably all arson too
Since he 'taught' criminal justice I'm sure he knows that he will be in prison for a very long time unless some fellow Commie of a judge lets him off.
And don't forget that most of Australia's wildfires were intentionally set when the Left was screaming about how it was climate change that caused the fires.
Same shit every year. Those fires are set, not natural.
In every case, if it's not lightning that caused it, it was arson.
And this intellectual midget decided this all on his own??? Right
My Cousin is a CalFire Captain up on this fire risking his life to save others!! His wife and kids have been alone for weeks because of this and months past because of these fires! This man they’ve caught needs to be on the death row quick list!
A prof from Sonoma State. Perfect.
"He was a part-time lecturer in the Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice," ..... and part-time arsonist! Sounds like Dexter, being part-time blood spatter analyst and part-time serial killer!
The Fricker fire is why so many fire ordinances exist today.

Execute him
Like burn your house down Kate brown said this ‘climate change’ is going to be an annual thing. Buckle up
This had been going on since I was a kid in the Bay Area. Arson has been a big problem in California for a very long time. Even before all the climate change crap started. Not sure if it is merely mental illness or pure evil. The recent uptick in fires is mental instability from the Global Warming scam. At this point, the Bay Area is lost. Shame too, some of the best climate in the world to live in. The kill shots should eliminate about 90% of the population, so it might be a good place to live again in another 4-6 months. About 90% of those sheep are mRNA shot up. The same situation will apply in Seattle, but it isn't as nice a place to live.
Just found out that the fire that almost burned my house down (saved by the grace of God), was started by a mysterious group of ATV "enthusiasts" near a rural orchard.
I suspect antifa, though ATVs would be a new one for them.
Ofcourse it is always have been
And I can't believe, at least the Fox radio "news", reported this. I wonder how the more leftist MSM will report it, if at all.
California PG&E admitted to starting it accidentally. This liberal looney professor stoked it some more
bullshit... that was a big fucking lie
This faggot is not a 'liberal looney', he's Antifa and I bet dollars to donuts he was getting paid by higher ups.
Oh look... Faggot Newsom protects PG&E right after they cop to starting the fires.
Majority shareholders of PG&E is the Rothschilds.
Yea I don't know the whole story, just what was relayed from the Lame Stream Media. I wouldn't doubt it's worse than what they described
