Charges filed in arson
A couple is charged with intentionally setting fire to their own apartment complex in order to collect more than $25,000 in renter's insurance. Christopher Alan Garcia and Jennifer Joy Bennett are charged with first-degree arson for the fire that tore through the Whisperwoods apartment complex located at 11838 26th Avenue South.

On May 27, the fire started in Bennetts' ground floor unit and quickly spread to the entire building. Officials estimate the damage at more than $1 million.

According to court papers, three weeks before the fire, Bennett moved many of her valuables out of the complex to protect them from being burned. Garcia and Bennett received more than $25,000 from Farmers Insurance. The couple purchased renter's insurance just two months prior to the arson. Both Garcia and Bennett are being held at the King County Jail.
