A 45-year-old Boston woman is facing one count of arson after she was accused of starting a fire in a Dorchester triple-decker where she lives, according to District Attorney Kevin Hayden.
Nikea Rivera was arraigned on Tuesday in connection with the two-alarm fire at 74 Mora St., which started shortly after 11 a.m. According to Hayden, Rivera told police that she had to start the fire because “that house is haunted.”
“The devil made me do it, there are ghosts in my house,” Rivera told booking officers.
