Station Fire: "I wanted them to say they were guilty"

Linda Fischer wanted to hear more.

Although each Derderian brother repeatedly said he was sorry while addressing the court, neither entered a guilty plea. Fischer, 37, of Cranston, underwent 12 surgeries and spent three weeks in a coma after being burned in the Station fire.

She acknowledged that the Derderians -- Jeffrey especially -- sounded sincere, but she wasn't satisfied.

"If they truly felt they had done something wrong, they would have pleaded guilty," she said moments after the Derderians spoke. "I wanted them to be more like Dan Biechele."
