State Trooper1956

[first lines]

Lt. Rod Blake:
Oh, hello. I'm Rod Blake, chief investigator for the Nevada state troopers. Now, every year millions of Americans visiting our national parks and forests read signs imploring them to "snuff out that cigarette" or "break that match". Forest fires cost the taxpayer more than 50 million dollars every year. Now most fires are started by carelessness, but there are those fires deliberately set that represent the most brutal crimes in police history. You'll hear about such a case in a story called, "The Firebug".
