Tacoma woman convicted of murder, arson sentenced to more than 80 years in prison

A Tacoma woman who was convicted of murder and over a dozen counts of arson was sentenced to more than 80 years in prison on Tuesday.
Sarah Jane Ramey set a string of fires in Tacoma and Ruston between late December 2021 and late January 2022, the first of which caused the death of James Elliott, a father and grandfather who lived in North Tacoma on Rosemount Way.
Neighbors testified during the trial that Elliott was awake when the fire ignited at his home, and that they desperately tried to reach him before he was found dead of smoke inhalation by firefighters. Elliott had attempted to shelter from the fire in his bathroom.

Absolutely breaks my heart. So many people have so little care, compassion, value for human life, and it is absolutely heartbreaking. Innocent life is sacred and it's worth so much more then being killed so thoughtlessly, so recklessly. 😔

Arson is such a evil and cowardly crime. Ive been a victim and thankfully there was no loss of life, but rebuilding was hard.
