The arsonist responsible for touching off a massive 2006 blaze that killed five firefighters has been convicted of murder. Raymond Oyler, a 38-year-old former auto mechanic, was found guilty of five counts of first-degree murder, one for each of the five US Forest Service firefighters who died in the 2006 Esperanza Fire in eastern Riverside County. The five firefighters died defending a home that had been overrun by the fast-moving blaze. Oyler was also convicted of 20 counts of arson, meaning he could face the death penalty.
