On July 15, 2017, Chism and Kimberly Marie Hughes, were arrested in connection to an arson that killed two children and injured their parents and one other adult near Mount Vernon, Washington.

Chism and Hughes were being held for investigation of arson and first-degree murder. They previously lived at the home where the fire was set, but were evicted just days earlier. Hughes had threatened to burn it down.

A tenant, Jacob Motz, woke up when he heard fire crackling at 2 a.m. Saturday, and looked to see fire coming through the windows from an area near the front porch.

He woke homeowner Bryan Bachofer to fight the fire while the other homeowner, Jessica Starr, tried to evacuate their children from the second floor.

By the time Bachofer and Motz got back downstairs, the house was engulfed in flames.

Unable to return upstairs, they ran outside.

Starr reported that she got the children, a 6-year-old son and 8-year-old daughter, to a window to try to escape.

When Starr pushed the screen to open it, she fell through the window, falling to the ground from the second story.

The children were not able to make it out.

A deputy later found Chism and Hughes at 6:30 a.m. Saturday in a tent pitched in the back yard of a Sedro-Wooley home. There was a gas can in the back seat of their car.

A judge set bail at $2 million each.
