SLED investigators found evidence the victim’s wounds didn’t match fire trauma, while video shows McClary with the victim, then fleeing the scene before smoke erupted from the back of the building. Compounding suspicion: McClary had prior arson ties, was found with burnt gear and a burn barrel, and even bore visible injuries. Authorities vow to pursue more charges as the investigation deepens—a stark warning of how quickly tragedy can be engineered.
