or the drugs. I dunno, but he was high as shit.
A teenager said he was high on drugs when a ghost living in a barn told
him to burn it down, according to Northampton County Court records.
...
A few weeks after the fire, police were contacted by Scott Milham,
fire marshal for Hanover Township. Milham said he was contacted by the
Bethlehem Area School District because Strohl was overheard on a bus
bragging about burning down the barn.
Several students told police
about Strohl's statements, including that he was high on drugs and with
his 17-year-old girlfriend in the barn at the time of the blaze. Strohl
told his fellow students that a ghost told him to light the fire,
police said.
On March 14, police interviewed Strohl's girlfriend
with her parents present. She told police that she and Strohl believed
the barn was haunted because three people had died there.
The girl
told police they believed if they set fire to the barn, it would free
the ghosts. They returned to her home and got a propane torch they used
to set a crate of papers ablaze.
