The man who set fire to a home on East 18th Street in September of 2021 was sentenced to 10 years in prison Wednesday morning in Christian Circuit Court.
Judge John Atkins denied probation for 52-year old Anthony Taylor as he sentenced him to 10 years on the second-degree arson charge.
The judge noted public defender Eric Bearden can file a motion for shock probation for Taylor as soon as 30 days.
No one was injured in the fire that caused about $40,000 in damages to the 812 East 18th Street home on September 1, 2021.
