DOUGLAS , Ariz. — “That's not what Douglas stands for— burning churches," said Douglas Mayor Donald Huish." Douglas stands for rebuilding and coming together.”

Susan Kramer, a ruling elder for First Presbyterian Church says she found out about Thursday’s verdict via text and was instantly relieved. She says it’s been a long recovery for the church and its members since the fire, and with Ridenour going to prison the community can put what happened behind them.For her, the verdict means the arsonist won’t be back, at least for a very long time.

She didn’t attend the trial, but says she’d like to go to the sentencing and share a victims' statement.
