Lackawanna arsonist sentenced despite family's push for more jail time

"These kids, they have nightmares every night and don't go to bed because they fear the bad guy is going to come back and set their house on fire," says Yaser Soliman, a relative of the family injured in a 2017 fire on Ingham Avenue. Soliman read an emotional statement before Corey Green's sentencing in court Tuesday morning. He described the PTSD and extensive injuries two children and their parents suffered trying to escape their home engulfed in flames. A third child, only six months old at the time, was thrown out of the window into the arms of a neighbor. "He (Green) sentenced this family to a lifetime of pain and trauma," said Soliman.
