ABOUT JOHN ORR
Fire captain in Southern California who turned out to be a serial arsonist.
Authorities first got suspicious when a fingerprint from a suspected arson site was matched to him.
Because his fires were responsible for much property damage and four lost lives, the prosecutors asked for the death penalty; ultimately, he was sentenced to life in prison.
He grew up in Southern California.
His story became the basis of the HBO film Point of Origin, starring Ray Liotta .
