PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) -- Circuit Court Judge John Olson issued his restitution
opinion for the teenager who pleaded guilty to starting the Eagle Creek Fire last
summer, ordering him to pay $36 million.
The teen was in court on Thursday for a restitution hearing, where 11 different
claims were submitted from different agencies and companies totaling $36 million.
The teen's attorney argued the number was "cruel and unusual."
Cruel and unusual? How about just plain stupid.
