Feds revise charges in Palisades arson case
Prosecutors filed a new indictment against Jonathan Rinderknecht, who is accused of intentionally starting a fire that later reignited into the deadly Palisades wildfire. The charges have been narrowed after a mistrial and unresolved jury deadlock, with Rinderknecht remaining in custody. The fire, which occurred on January 1, 2025, killed 12 people and caused extensive damage, but key evidence linking him directly to the ignition remains contested. A retrial is scheduled for October.
