Cody Balmer was "harboring hatred" toward Shapiro before setting fire at Governor's Residence, documents say

[yuna628 9,811]

Human excuse for an amoeba Cody Balmer apparently walked an hour up to the PA governor's mansion, climbed over the wall and while the guards apparently did nothing, entered the building set it on fire, and then slipped out the way he came. The police affidavit said he wanted to beat the governor to death with a sledgehammer. The governor and his family had been having their Passover meal before going to bed and were unaware that the suspect had intruded let alone set it on fire. Thankfully they evacuated safely. The damage to the historical property has been horrific. I think someone responsible for safety needs firing..

Cody A. Balmer, 38, was charged with attempted criminal homicide, aggravated arson, burglary, terrorism and other counts in connection with the early Sunday morning attack, the Dauphin County District Attorney’s Office announced Monday. 

 

The arson attack lasted for several minutes. Shapiro and first lady Lori Shapiro, as well as other guests and staff, were inside the Harrisburg residence when the fire erupted around 2 a.m. No one was injured in the fire, and the governor's family was safely evacuated. However, prosecutors said the residence sustained "substantial damage."

Balmer, of Harrisburg, turned himself into the Pennsylvania State Police on Sunday and admitted to "harboring hatred towards Governor Shapiro."

When asked during a police interview what he would have done if Shapiro found him inside the residence, "he advised he would have beaten him with his hammer," the probable cause affidavit said. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/know-arson-suspect-fire-pa-gov-josh-shapiros-residence-rcna201096

 

This report states that his mother was aware his was off his meds and tried to get the police department to arrest him multiple times (he already has a criminal record).

Glad Gov. Shapiro and his family and friends are safe. Is there something in the water in PA?

The current emerging story paints the picture of a deranged woman and child abuser. It's terrifying that he had been allowed shared custody of some of his children. To get the gasoline he needed to make the Molotovs he siphoned it out of someone's lawn mower. How this guy managed to breach security is crazy.

I love PA, but like the 'Florida Man' meme there is also a type that comes out of there.

I agree, the security lapse after action report will be interesting.
