WAVE 3 TV Louisville, KY | No Jail Time For Woman Who Set Fire Because Beer Ran Out
Member Center:
(LOUISVILLE) -- A woman who admitted to setting a fire in her home because she was upset there was no beer pleaded guilty to arson, and several other charges Tuesday.
Police say Ruby Jewell was upset that her husband wouldn't buy her more beer last January, so she slapped him in the head, then set the couch on fire.
The couple's five children were sleeping nearby, but they were not hurt.
Because she pleaded guilty, Jewell will not have to go to jail if she completes a diversion program.
