Interrogating the Most Arrogant Killer We've Ever Seen

Sarah Jane Ramey sat across from Tacoma detectives and denied everything. Thirteen arson fires. One dead man — 83-year-old James Elliott, killed in a New Year's Eve house fire. Surveillance video in a high-visibility jacket. A white truck. Her own casino card left at a fire scene. And through 42 minutes of evidence, her answer never changed: "I didn't do it." This is the full interrogation breakdown — cold open, case backstory, and frame-by-frame analysis of how detectives dismantled her alibi piece by piece.
