"Wanna reenact my Pepsi commercial?"

A bartender told police that Jarvis came running out of the bathroom to tell him about the blaze.

Surveillance camera footage helped lead police to Jarvis, who was arrested.

“I felt stressed because my apartment had recently caught on fire, and because of the death of Michael Jackson,” she allegedly told authorities when asked why she’d set the blaze.
