A young lawyer has burned down a memorial to 9/11 victims.
The chapel that he set fire to contained the unidentified remains of 9/11 vicitms and memorials. The chapel is safe, but the memorials are gone.

He is an Ivy League graduate, who was meant to start a $150,000 a year job with a law firm. The law firm lost someone in 9/11.

Worst drunken night EVER!

To be honest it sounds like he isn't that bad a guy, he just got drunk and did something REALLY bad.

To his credit he turned himself in immediately once he was sober.

I suppose your right, you do have to hand it to him for handing himself in but must be very hard on the victims relatives.....
