Georgia Authorities Searching for Female Arson Suspect

Forsyth County, Georgia authorities are looking for a woman suspected of burning her home and trying to blame it on her support of President Obama.

The county’s director of pre-trial services, Robert J. Tavenier, said that a felony arrest warrant has been issued for Pamela Graf on a charge of tampering with an electronic monitoring device.

Tavenier says Graf’s ankle monitor was found on a roadside in Twiggs County in middle Georgia.

He says she was failed to appear March 31 for a hearing on a drug charge in Twiggs County. It was unrelated to the Jan. 14 fire at her home near Lake Lanier.

She is charged with first-degree arson in an alleged scheme to burn her five-bedroom home to collect the insurance.
