“Montez Terriel Lee, 26, pleaded guilty to a single count of arson and was sentenced earlier this month to 10 years in federal prison — much less than the 16 1/2 to 20-year punishment outlined in the sentencing guidelines,” The Washington Examiner noted.
On May 28, 2020, Lee, wearing a mask, burned down the Max It Pawn Shop. Video showed him dousing the store by pouring liquid out from a metal container, then later holding up his fist as the person videotaping him says, “Oh s***, you really did it!”
A second video showed Lee standing in front of the burning pawnshop as someone asks him, “What you do, Tez?” Lee chortles, “F*** this place. We’re going to burn this b**** down!”
