What a POS I hope they hang him..............
The suspect, Raymond Lee Oyler, 36, is already under arrest on suspicion of setting two other wildfires over the summer. Sheriff's investigators sought to charge Oyler with murder, arson and use of an incendiary device, Undersheriff Neil Lingle said.
The blaze was the deadliest for firefighters since 14 were killed in July 1994 near Glenwood Springs, Colo., according to the National Interagency Fire Center statistics.
District Attorney-elect Rod Pacheco said prosecutors would file charges later Thursday.
Oyler will also face two so-called special circumstances, one alleging murders committed during arson and another alleging multiple murders, Pacheco said. A court appearance was set for later Thursday.
The charges are punishable by life in prison without parole or the death penalty, Pacheco said.
A woman who answered the phone at the home of Oyler's mother said she had no comment.
The fire was stoked by Santa Ana winds as it swept southwest through the San Jacinto Mountains. The flames overran the fire crew, destroyed 34 homes and charred more than 60 square miles before being contained Monday.
Three firefighters died at the scene, and a fourth died soon after at a hospital. A fifth was taken off life support on Tuesday night.
The five firefighters killed fighting the fire were the engine captain, Mark Loutzenhiser, 43, of Idyllwild; Jason McKay, 27, of Apple Valley; Jess McLean, 27, of Beaumont; Pablo Cerda, of Fountain Valley; and Daniel Hoover-Najera, 20, of San Jacinto.
A public memorial service for the dead firefighters is scheduled for 1 p.m. Sunday at the Hyundai Pavilion in Devore. Individual firefighter funerals will be private, officials said.
Investigators interviewed Oyler on Oct. 27, served a search warrant on his residence Monday, then arrested him Tuesday.

hanging would be way to easy, should hang him rightside up and let all the family members of the firefighters killed slowly burn him to death using bic lighters. Starting with his toes so he stays alive for maximum pain.
