FOOD FOR THOUGHT...PLEASE ALL OF US 'BIA' PLEASE REMEMBER THE NAME ALEXANDER PIGGEE FOR THE NEXT TIME WE HAVE

ANTELOPE —
Aside from this huge mess at the Roseville Galleria, fire investigators confirm they've questioned Alexander Piggee for the series of arsons in Sacramento County this summer.

"Our arson investigators looked at it, interviewed him, he does not throw a red flag up for us as the arsonist who ran rampant this summer," Sac Metro Fire Capt. Christian Pebbles said.

Investigators do believe he started a fire at this Antelope Walmart just hours before he walked into the Galleria.

And just a week earlier, Piggee is suspected of setting fire to his grandmother's home, also in Antelope.

Haddie Carter told FOX40 she thinks Piggee set the fire, angry at her for not allowing him to stay in her home.

"He said she had kicked him out," resident Kenny Gilbert said.

Neighbors told us that Alex broke into the house on Tuesday, spent the night here, then stole some items from inside before leaving the next morning.

Residents on the block are still in shock that Piggee is linked to the mall fire, and possibly this one at his grandmother's house.

"I come outside, it's just wow. Turn on the T.V. And see the mall falling down," Gilbert said.

One young man, dozens of fires, and now investigators go to work trying to connect them.

"If Alexander becomes a suspect in any of these investigations, then he can expect a knock on his prison door from us," Pebbles said.

(Oct. 22) -- Alexander Piggee, the 23-year-old former fast-food clerk accused of torching a high-end shopping mall in Northern California, had recently lost his job and was suffering from depression, friends and family members said.

"We're in shock. We just cannot believe that my son did that or what brought it on," Mary Carter told Sacramento's KCRA-TV.

Alexander Piggee was arrested on suspicion of arson after a fire at a Roseville, Calif., mall on Thursday.

Piggee was booked into the Placer County Jail on Thursday on multiple charges, including suspicion of arson and arson under conditions likely to cause great bodily injury and causing damages and losses in excess of $6.5 million.

According to The Associated Press, Roseville police were called to the Roseville Galleria mall Thursday morning when a man claiming to have a gun walked into a GameStop store and told employees to get out.

"He was saying stuff about his family. The staff from GameStop [said] he was more or less incoherent," Roseville Police Lt. Mike Doane told the AP.

The man then barricaded himself inside a back room of the store and started a fire. Authorities later found Piggee outside the store and took him into custody without incident.

Authorities are trying to determine whether Piggee is connected to other arsons that occurred Wednesday in Antelope, one of which caused approximately $5,000 worth of damages to a Walmart store.

Carter said that her son, who was on the honor roll in high school and had received two college athletic scholarships, was deeply depressed and had tried to admit himself to the hospital three times in the last six weeks. Carter also said she had recently ordered Piggee out of her house because she believed he was an adult who needed to learn how to fend for himself, the Sacramento Bee reported.

According to KCRA-TV, Carter said her son's mental health problems began to develop after he graduated from high school in 2005. Those problems were recently compounded when he was fired from his job at a fast-food burger chain.

"He's been in a total of two or three different hospitals for psych evaluations. And as an uncle, you don't think about it at the time, but given this situation, you look back and you see how hard he was actually trying to reach out," Piggee's uncle, Vince Carter, told Sacramento's KTXL-TV.

Carl Gonsolin, a former classmate of Piggee's who has not seen him in several years but kept up with him on Facebook, said Piggee was "pretty down to earth" and seemed "very smart' when they attended school together.

"I don't remember him doing anything crazy or shady back in high school," Gonsolin told AOL News. "[But] his life seemed to get more and more complicated and disappointing lately. ... As for when his life took a turn, you have to ask him that. I personally have no clue what it was that just finally broke him."

Some of the problems Piggee had been dealing with are still archived on his Facebook page, McClatchy Newspapers reported.

In an Oct. 14 entry, Piggee wrote: "And death to me would be the easiest way for me to solve all my mental issues, but I love myself and my sister too much to end my own life."

In other entries he discussed joining the military and being diagnosed at a health care facility with "anxiety depression, OCD, ADD, and Bi-Polar split personalities." He also claimed he was in a coma for three days after getting hit by a car that was going 70 mph.

In addition to his bizarre postings, Piggee also expressed anger at his mother for asking him to leave her house.

"Mom you [want to] kick me out leave me to die out here," Piggee wrote on Aug. 21. "I have been jumped, shot at [and] put in the hospital twice. Where the f--- have you been? So you win. Are you happy? Guess what your prize is A DEAD SON. There, are you happy? You want me out your life so bad I'll help you."

Former classmate Amanda Peterson said Piggee was "very intelligent" in school and for some reason snapped.

"Nobody that knew him from before could describe him as being a bad guy. His cries for help were brushed off as a plea for attention," Peterson told AOL News. "It should not have come to this. It was only recently he began acting strange and saying weird things."

Authorities have not yet commented on a motive in the case. Piggee is being held without bail, and his arraignment date has not yet been scheduled, police said.

NUP...STOP THE BRAINWASHING...

Irma, I will look further into this.

But please see my latest blog on a security breach at hbcuconnect.com. I don't know how many pay attention to my blogs so I am alerting here and elsewhere as well. But I would advise not to visit that site until the administrators have secured it. I had to email Reginald directly and as it is the weekend I don't know when he will see it. It is possible BIA is compromised also, so be careful, not everyone has their system secured as I do.

Irma I haven't lost interest in this story, I just have so much going on, it's been hard to find the time. And it's frustrating I haven't heard back from Reginald, and don't have other contacts with administration, other than Mr. Moss, whom I will try now. But this is part of what's keeping me from the topic of your blog.

"I" ALREADY KNOW THAT THIS SITE IS NOT INTERESTED IN THIS YOUNG MAN, BUT THE 'WHITE PSYCHRIST, THE SCHOOLS IN OUR LOCAL AREAS HAVE COME OUT IN THIS YOUNG MAN'S DEFENSE...

BESIDES I AM SURE THAT YOUR NEWS MEDIA HAS AND IS RUNNING INFORMATION ABOUT LINSEY LOHAN AREN'T THEY?!?...CAN WE IN THE BLACK COMMUNITY DO SOMETHING MORE THAN POINT THE FINGER AT ALL BUT US FOR NOT HELPING US?!!!!!!!!!!! (NUP)

I asked us to get media coverage on the inhmane treatment of teh state of california to this one individual Alexander Piggee...example,

the police have failed to get their unsloved arson out break over the summer placed on this youth as he seemed so promising to get their cases closed at last and without any more work on them as most police departments and fire departments are so under staffed due to the economey of this state!!!

the state being brok meant it is out and out lie that he was in the hospital,and this is the reason this young man had been forced to become a legal prescription human pharmacy of some of the most addictive and lethal drugs know to the medica field so they did not have to put him in the hospital...

anyone pay attention t my saying how the psychrist had come to Alexander Piggee's defense...

there is not a court in America taht is more powerful than a psychrist saying the state not this young man is responsiable for any of this...

Haldole was only the 4 powerful drugs prescribme for this young man just to keep from giving himproper treatments and i tis up to us to allow one more statistice of Black therefore violent...and even more so as you don't hear about a father...
