Arson Investigation Fire Destroys Home While Family on Vacation

A Powell County family is coming back from vacation to find their home destroyed by a fire that officials are calling suspicious.

Sunday night around 10 p.m., Robin Braunlin’s home on Virden Springs Road in Clay City caught on fire. Her ex mother-in-law, Judith Curtis, says there are a few things that make this suspicious, and firefighters agree.

“The fireman said that the back door looked like it had been jarred or a crow bar had been used,” Curtis said.

And it seems some electronics were missing from the home.

“No TVs. And there was four TVs,” Curtis said.

While Curtis believes the fire was intentionally set, she says the family has been out of town on vacation since June. So it is possible someone broke into the home on an earlier date and the house accidentally caught fire Sunday night.

An arson investigator is expected to be out on the scene Tuesday.

Curtis says it’s like they are reliving a nightmare all over again, but this time it’s worse. She says a year ago, the house was also broken into while the owners were on vacation.
