Family of Garrard County Fire Victim Believes Fire Could Have Been Prevented
Posted: Oct 11, 2012
The family of the victim of a suspicious house fire in Garrard County says they believe Damien Heath Mullins set fire to the house himself, as a cry for help.
Mullins is listed in critical condition at UK Hospital Thursday night. His sister, Venetta Mullins, says the 37-year-old Army veteran was suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and never got the continuous help he needed.
From the outside, the house on Cleo Drive still looks like a dream house. But inside, the burned piano and a hole burnt in the floor, tell a different story. A story, investigators say, that points to arson.
Damien Mullins' wife and sister say the loving father and husband, a veteran who served in Iraq in 2006 and 2007, had PTSD and other mental health issues.
"He has a lot of anger and sadness inside of him from serving, and can't seem to let it go. I just pray that people can see this, and you know it's time to really pull together," says Venetta Mullins, Damien Mullins' sister.
She believes the fire could have been prevented. She says her brother made a suicidal post on facebook two weeks ago.
