"headTitle": "KQED News",
"content": "\u003cp>A veteran Oakland fire investigator on Tuesday described the methodical but ultimately inconclusive inquiry into the cause of the Dec. 2, 2016, Ghost Ship warehouse fire that killed 36 and cast doubt on the defense attorneys' claim that it was a deliberate act of arson involving Molotov cocktail-like devices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"More of KQED's Coverage\" tag=\"ghost-ship-trial\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although the cause of the fire was undetermined, Oakland Fire Department investigator Maria Sabatini said investigators found no evidence of arson. Her team found no remnants of the glass shards or wicks associated with Molotov cocktails, which the defense has suggested were used to start the fire, nor did her team hear any witness accounts of the sound of breaking glass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jurors in the criminal trial were shown pictures of charred debris inside the Fruitvale warehouse, as Sabatini recounted how her multiagency team sifted through the wreckage by hand in search of evidence, such as burn patterns and accelerants, of the blaze's ignition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Investigators concluded the fire started near a kitchen area with two refrigerators and a toaster oven.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prosecutors allege master tenant Derick Almena built and operated the un-permitted residence and music venue with a willful disregard for safety, enlisting co-defendant Max Harris as his subordinate or second-in-command. Each of the men faces 36 counts of involuntary manslaughter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sabatini's testimony, which is subject to cross-examination Wednesday, potentially rebuffs what has emerged as an important part of Harris and Almena's defense: That the fire was not due to the co-defendants' actions or neglect, but due to a deliberate act of arson. The defense has also sought to shift blame to the landlord and many government officials who visited the warehouse without flagging unsafe conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Defense attorneys Tony Serra and Curtis Briggs have said witnesses saw seven to 10 Latino men in dark clothing leave the building moments after the fire started, and that one of the witnesses then overheard people nearby boasting about leaving obstructions within the warehouse. They've also said witnesses will testify to hearing \"popping\" or breaking glass, indicative of the use of a Molotov cocktail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sabatini said it was the \"most complex\" investigation of her career, involving a collapsed ceiling and the recovery of bodies that had fallen from the second to first floor. Due to the suspected number of bodies, initially estimated to be as many as 100, and debris dense enough to prohibit moving through the interior of the building, the process was a \"tremendous challenge,\" Sabatini said. \"We couldn't see the floor.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Questioned by Alameda County Assistant District Attorney Casey Bates, Sabatini said the rapid spread of the fire resulted from the interior \"fuel load,\" referring to the maze of trailers, partitions and wooden furniture inside the Ghost Ship. She said art supplies such as paint thinner and gasoline, stored within recreational vehicles used as bedrooms and studios, also likely intensified the deadly conflagration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During Sabatini's testimony, the prosecution projected photographs of the warehouse's interior taken during the investigation. The mounds of debris gradually grew smaller over time, as investigators hauled materials away in 5-gallon buckets. One of the photos depicted scorched appliances in an area where Sabatini said three witnesses independently reported to investigators first seeing flames.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During a preliminary hearing in December, Sabatini said she suspected the cause was electrical failure, but under cross-examination said she could not rule out an open flame or arson as possible causes of the fire. An earlier report by her team left the cause as officially undetermined.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sabatini's testimony will continue Wednesday, beginning with cross-examination by Harris' co-counsel, Andrew Stein, a Southern California attorney brought in to question the fire investigator.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Her team found no remnants of the glass shards or wicks associated with Molotov cocktails, which the defense has suggested were used to start the fire, nor did her team hear any witness accounts of the sound of breaking glass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jurors in the criminal trial were shown pictures of charred debris inside the Fruitvale warehouse, as Sabatini recounted how her multiagency team sifted through the wreckage by hand in search of evidence, such as burn patterns and accelerants, of the blaze's ignition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Investigators concluded the fire started near a kitchen area with two refrigerators and a toaster oven.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prosecutors allege master tenant Derick Almena built and operated the un-permitted residence and music venue with a willful disregard for safety, enlisting co-defendant Max Harris as his subordinate or second-in-command. Each of the men faces 36 counts of involuntary manslaughter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sabatini's testimony, which is subject to cross-examination Wednesday, potentially rebuffs what has emerged as an important part of Harris and Almena's defense: That the fire was not due to the co-defendants' actions or neglect, but due to a deliberate act of arson. The defense has also sought to shift blame to the landlord and many government officials who visited the warehouse without flagging unsafe conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They've also said witnesses will testify to hearing \"popping\" or breaking glass, indicative of the use of a Molotov cocktail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sabatini said it was the \"most complex\" investigation of her career, involving a collapsed ceiling and the recovery of bodies that had fallen from the second to first floor. Due to the suspected number of bodies, initially estimated to be as many as 100, and debris dense enough to prohibit moving through the interior of the building, the process was a \"tremendous challenge,\" Sabatini said. \"We couldn't see the floor.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Questioned by Alameda County Assistant District Attorney Casey Bates, Sabatini said the rapid spread of the fire resulted from the interior \"fuel load,\" referring to the maze of trailers, partitions and wooden furniture inside the Ghost Ship. She said art supplies such as paint thinner and gasoline, stored within recreational vehicles used as bedrooms and studios, also likely intensified the deadly conflagration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During Sabatini's testimony, the prosecution projected photographs of the warehouse's interior taken during the investigation. The mounds of debris gradually grew smaller over time, as investigators hauled materials away in 5-gallon buckets. One of the photos depicted scorched appliances in an area where Sabatini said three witnesses independently reported to investigators first seeing flames.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During a preliminary hearing in December, Sabatini said she suspected the cause was electrical failure, but under cross-examination said she could not rule out an open flame or arson as possible causes of the fire. An earlier report by her team left the cause as officially undetermined.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sabatini's testimony will continue Wednesday, beginning with cross-examination by Harris' co-counsel, Andrew Stein, a Southern California attorney brought in to question the fire investigator.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"headTitle": "The California Report | KQED News",
"content": "\u003cp>A senior fire official testified Wednesday in the Ghost Ship trial that whoever changes a building's use is responsible for compliance with safety codes intended to save lives in the event of a blaze. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cesar Avila, former assistant fire marshal with the City of Oakland, described the differing safety standards for buildings designated assembly, residential and storage, and explained how a change of use can trigger more stringent requirements. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='ghost-ship-trial' label='More Ghost Ship Trial Coverage']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Sometimes we refer to the [fire] code as being written in blood and ashes,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The highly technical testimony led to a question from Alameda County prosecutor Casey Bates about who shoulders the responsibility for code compliance. Avila responded that whoever changes the use, whether tenant or landlord, is required to make improvements reflecting relevant safety standards. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Avila appeared in court on the third day of witness testimony in the criminal trial stemming from the 2016 Ghost Ship warehouse fire that killed 36. Master tenant Derick Almena and Max Harris, who's been described as second in command or creative director, each face 36 counts of involuntary manslaughter. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bates has previously argued that Almena and Harris converted the Fruitvale district warehouse into an unpermitted residence and music venue with willful disregard for fire safety, while the defendants' attorneys have attempted to shift blame to city officials for ignoring dangerous conditions. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The defense attorneys have also said the fire broke out not because of code deficiencies, but because of a band of arsonists in dark clothing, alluding to a conflict between the warehouse and a neighbor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Avila said buildings designated multi-unit residential require illuminated exit signs and two means of escape, and that an exit leading to a lot surrounded by a fence with a locked gate doesn't qualify. Assembly and residential buildings also require integrated fire suppression and alarm systems, he said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also said it's \"absolutely not\" permissible to have indoor recreational-vehicles used residentially. \"A mobile home or RV is not a room,\" he said. \"You could have fuel, fumes [and] propane tanks attached to the RV. ... You could have oil in the car that could help fire spread.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During cross-examination, Harris' defense attorney Curtis Briggs stressed that his client moved in to Ghost Ship after the bulk of the interior construction. Briggs asked Avila if Harris had access to the city database indicating the permitted use of the building, and the witness said no. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an unusual exchange, Briggs also called Avila's attention to the courtroom's lack of fire sprinklers and exit signs, asking how trial-goers would know how to escape in the event of a fire. Avila responded that because buildings such as the courthouse predate modern fire codes, different standards apply. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During cross-examination by Almena's attorney Tony Serra, Avila said he found no records of the Ghost Ship warehouse being inspected prior to the fire. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the afternoon, the prosecution called Jennifer Turner to the witness stand. Turner said she rented a space in Ghost Ship for fewer than two months in late 2014 after responding to a Craigslist advertisement for housing in a \"psychedelic pirate ship.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During a tour of the space, Turner said Almena and another tenant \"explicitly\" told her to publicly describe Ghost Ship as a 24-hour artists' studio with public access, not a residence. Turner is expected to continue testifying that she moved out because of safety concerns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Serra told reporters that he'll show the building owners, the Ng family, knew about the change of use, and emphasized that ultimately the jury must decide who had responsibility for safety at Ghost Ship.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You watch, we're going to raise reasonable doubt that it was arson,\" Serra added. \"All the fire codes in the world aren't going to take into account what you have to do when there's an arson.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The jury also heard testimony Wednesday from Judy Melinek, a forensic pathologist who conducted autopsies on eight Ghost Ship fire victims and determined they died of smoke inhalation. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Avila responded that whoever changes the use, whether tenant or landlord, is required to make improvements reflecting relevant safety standards. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Avila appeared in court on the third day of witness testimony in the criminal trial stemming from the 2016 Ghost Ship warehouse fire that killed 36. Master tenant Derick Almena and Max Harris, who's been described as second in command or creative director, each face 36 counts of involuntary manslaughter. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bates has previously argued that Almena and Harris converted the Fruitvale district warehouse into an unpermitted residence and music venue with willful disregard for fire safety, while the defendants' attorneys have attempted to shift blame to city officials for ignoring dangerous conditions. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The defense attorneys have also said the fire broke out not because of code deficiencies, but because of a band of arsonists in dark clothing, alluding to a conflict between the warehouse and a neighbor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Assembly and residential buildings also require integrated fire suppression and alarm systems, he said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also said it's \"absolutely not\" permissible to have indoor recreational-vehicles used residentially. \"A mobile home or RV is not a room,\" he said. \"You could have fuel, fumes [and] propane tanks attached to the RV. ... You could have oil in the car that could help fire spread.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During cross-examination, Harris' defense attorney Curtis Briggs stressed that his client moved in to Ghost Ship after the bulk of the interior construction. Briggs asked Avila if Harris had access to the city database indicating the permitted use of the building, and the witness said no. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an unusual exchange, Briggs also called Avila's attention to the courtroom's lack of fire sprinklers and exit signs, asking how trial-goers would know how to escape in the event of a fire. Avila responded that because buildings such as the courthouse predate modern fire codes, different standards apply. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During cross-examination by Almena's attorney Tony Serra, Avila said he found no records of the Ghost Ship warehouse being inspected prior to the fire. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the afternoon, the prosecution called Jennifer Turner to the witness stand. Turner said she rented a space in Ghost Ship for fewer than two months in late 2014 after responding to a Craigslist advertisement for housing in a \"psychedelic pirate ship.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During a tour of the space, Turner said Almena and another tenant \"explicitly\" told her to publicly describe Ghost Ship as a 24-hour artists' studio with public access, not a residence. Turner is expected to continue testifying that she moved out because of safety concerns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Serra told reporters that he'll show the building owners, the Ng family, knew about the change of use, and emphasized that ultimately the jury must decide who had responsibility for safety at Ghost Ship.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You watch, we're going to raise reasonable doubt that it was arson,\" Serra added. \"All the fire codes in the world aren't going to take into account what you have to do when there's an arson.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The jury also heard testimony Wednesday from Judy Melinek, a forensic pathologist who conducted autopsies on eight Ghost Ship fire victims and determined they died of smoke inhalation. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>Oakland firefighters snuffed out a three-alarm fire in an East Oakland warehouse that officials and witnesses say started in a debris pile outside the structure. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland fire units responded at 8:28 a.m. to the American Emperor electric warehouse at 19th Avenue between East 12th Street and International Boulevard. The blaze was contained by 10 a.m., and some units were withdrawn from the scene by 10:30.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Melinda Drayton, an Oakland Fire Department battalion chief, said workers and customers were in the two-story electrical and construction supply warehouse when the blaze broke out. Everyone inside escaped without injury, she said, adding that the building is likely a total loss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Drayton said the fire is believed to have started in a debris pile in an alley outside the building and spread into the structure through an open window. She added that while it's not known how the fire started, investigators will inspect video from surveillance cameras installed along the alley, called Solano Way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One witness, Anatol Dragstedt, said he was unsuccessful in an effort to stop the fire before it spread into the warehouse. Dragstedt said he was driving past the scene when he saw smoke and pulled up to a tent on fire on Solano Way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I discharged probably seven or eight fire extinguishers, and then we saw (the fire) running across the ceiling,\" Dragstedt said. \"There was one guy there pushing a car away, a white pick-up truck.

The blaze was contained by 10 a.m., and some units were withdrawn from the scene by 10:30.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Melinda Drayton, an Oakland Fire Department battalion chief, said workers and customers were in the two-story electrical and construction supply warehouse when the blaze broke out. Everyone inside escaped without injury, she said, adding that the building is likely a total loss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Drayton said the fire is believed to have started in a debris pile in an alley outside the building and spread into the structure through an open window. She added that while it's not known how the fire started, investigators will inspect video from surveillance cameras installed along the alley, called Solano Way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One witness, Anatol Dragstedt, said he was unsuccessful in an effort to stop the fire before it spread into the warehouse. Dragstedt said he was driving past the scene when he saw smoke and pulled up to a tent on fire on Solano Way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I discharged probably seven or eight fire extinguishers, and then we saw (the fire) running across the ceiling,\" Dragstedt said. \"There was one guy there pushing a car away, a white pick-up truck.
