Bomb and Arson Investigations

09/19/22 • 33 min

Crime News Insider

Detective Anthony Tripoli with the San Diego Sheriff's Department joins the podcast to talk about investigating fires, what makes it an arson under the law, and what it takes to dismantle a bomb.

Arson has been in the news lately, from wildfires to buildings being set on fire during protests, and attempted arsons at the home of political figures. Earlier this year in San Diego, a suspected arson was started at the home of County Supervisor Nathan Fletcher.

On September 12, 2022, authorities are investigating an arson case at the home of the mayor of Vancouver, Washington.

And in another case from last month, in Auburn, Washington, the bomb squad is looking for the suspect who placed a bomb in a car of a funeral attendee and causing it to explode.

Crime or Fiction: Each episode we look at the laws on the books; 2 crimes are real, 1 is fake, and you have to guess which one is the fake. The them this episode is: fire laws.

A. In Florida, it’s illegal to fail notify your neighbor of a dangerous fire you started on your property.

B. In Illinois, it’s illegal to eat in a restaurant that is on fire.

C. In Racine, WI, it’s illegal to refuse to aid a firefighter.

Next Episode

undefined - Domestic Violence

Domestic Violence

October is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Deputy DA Ben Barlow joins the podcast to talk about prosecuting domestic violence cases, the impact of these crimes, and helping survivors recover from abuse.

Harris County, Texas reported that 35% of homicides in its county were related to domestic violence. Atlanta reported 25% of homicides in its county were related to domestic violence. Domestic violence is a topic that is, unfortunately, always in the news. Just recently, in McGregor, TX, 5 people were shot dead in a suspected domestic violence rampage. And in San Bernardino, California, a suspect was on the run after killing the mother of his child and abducting their 15 year-old child. Tragically, the 15 year-old girl was killed after the suspect began shooting at the police and her death is still under investigation.

If you or someone you know needs assistance, help is available. The National Domestic Violence Hotline is 1-800-799-7233. If you are in San Diego County, you can go to One Safe Place in San Marcos, or the Family Justice Center in downtown San Diego.

Bio: Benjamin Barlow began his career as a prosecutor in the San Diego County District Attorney’s Office in 2010. During his career, he has served in the South Bay office, the Vista Office, the Sex Crimes Division, and the Family Protection Division. He was first elected to the DDAA Board in 2014 and re-elected in 2016. Mr. Barlow was elected Vice President in 2018 and elected as President in 2020 and reelected in 2022.

Crime or Fiction: Each episode we look at the laws on the books; 2 are real, 1 is fake, and see if you can guess which one is the fake. The theme of this episode is the history of domestic violence laws.

A. In 1899, California was the first state to criminalize domestic violence.

B. In 1871, the Alabama Supreme Court was the first in the nation to rescind the legal right of men to beat their wives.

C. In 1911, the first Family Court in the nation was established in Buffalo, NY.
