Investigators say he was listening to the rap song \u201cUn Zder, Un The\u201d by French artist Josman, whose accompanying music video depicts a series of fires being set.<\/p>\n<p>Court filings indicate that Google records show Rinderknecht, who was born in France, had listened to the song nine times and viewed the music video four times in the days leading up to the blaze.<\/p>\n<p>Translated lyrics from the French song include, \u201cDaily life is killing me,\u201d \u201cI feel like I\u2019m nowhere,\u201d and \u201ctoo much bitterness in my head, I think about the mistakes we made.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the 2018 music video, Josman is depicted smoking a blunt in his kitchen before a fire erupts and spreads throughout the apartment.<\/p>\n<p>Later scenes show the rapper igniting a burning barrel outside a housing complex, which quickly grows into a large inferno. In the video\u2019s closing moments, Josman is seen walking while holding a handful of burning banknotes, according to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2025\/10\/08\/us-news\/suspect-in-deadly-los-angeles-palisades-fire-arrested-law-enforcement-sources-say\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New York Post<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The blaze broke out around the same time as the separate Eaton Fire, which killed 19 people. Authorities have not yet identified a cause for that fire, The Post reported.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators believe Rinderknecht remained at the scene for about a minute, watching the flames spread before fleeing down the hiking trail. According to court documents, he then recorded a three-minute video in which he appeared to make multiple attempts to call 911 to report the fire.<\/p>\n<p>As he spoke to dispatchers, he typed \u201cAre you at fault if a fire is lift [sic] because of your cigarettes\u201d into ChatGPT, which was also captured as part of a screen recording, the criminal complaint says.<\/p>\n<p>Rinderknecht allegedly left the area after starting the fire but later turned his vehicle around to follow fire trucks back to the scene. Once there, he reportedly watched as firefighters worked to contain the blaze and recorded several videos of the response efforts, the complaint says.<\/p>\n<p>Both wildfires devastated communities across Southern California, leaving widespread destruction, loss, and lingering questions about fire prevention and response efforts.<\/p>\n<p>Rinderknecht was arrested in Florida and is expected to be extradited to California, where he will face charges related to the Palisades Fire \u2014 the deadliest wildfire in Los Angeles history.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Authorities identified the suspect as Jonathan Rinderknecht, 29, alleging that he intentionally ignited the fire in the Pacific Palisades area on New Year\u2019s Day.
