Story here. Excerpt:

'An O’Fallon, Missouri woman is facing a felony for allegedly trying to burn down a house that her ex-boyfriend was sleeping in with another woman. The fire happened last Friday at about 11:00am.

Investigators say at first 21 year old Kara Dodt told them she had left the home to go a friend's house and got a call about the fire. She later admitted to starting the fire. Dodt is facing a first degree arson charge.
...
Police say there is no evidence that she was trying to get back at her ex-boyfriend. Instead, police say Dodt told them she did it to get insurance money to help pay off bills. Dodt says she did not know the blaze was going to get out of control.'
