The Journal Star reports that 1533 W. Butler St. was set ablaze around 1:20 p.m. by an arsonist who poured gasoline on both floors. Here’s what the paper doesn’t say: this is a known Drug Nuisance Property according to the Peoria Police Department. The website explains that “[n]uisance letters are sent to landlords, tenants and/or homeowners where illegal drug activity has occurred.”
When a landlord or homeowner receives a nuisance letter they are required to abate the nuisance up to and including eviction. By using this website, you will be able to view public records of individuals related to the nuisance letter who were arrested for narcotics possession or other offenses during search warrants or other illegal activity.

The listing for August shows:
Butler (1533 W.) Beasley Jr., Charles W.
Brittine, Dexter
Burse, Ricky R.
Fitzpatrick, Allen S.
Yarbrough, Aerial D.
I’d say that’s a good start to a suspect list.
