An intentionally set house fire on October 15, 2010, in the 100 block of North Yale Avenue in Columbus, Ohio, killed three people: 61-year-old Deanna Perry, her 20-year-old grandson Charles Climer, and a 7-month-old infant, Brianna Smith. Investigators determined the blaze was arson. At the time Perry was babysitting Brianna, who was not related to Perry or Climer.

Despite investigations by the Columbus Police Department and Crime Stoppers and a reward for information, no suspects have been identified or charged. The victims’ family and community have held memorials and continue to publicize the case; family members describe deep, ongoing emotional pain and frustration over the lack of resolution.

Anyone with information that could help solve this arson and homicide is urged to come forward.
