About Aliya Fakhri's murder charges
As per a report by Daily News, Aliya set a two-storey garage on fire in Queens, New York, killing Edward Jacobs and his female friend Anastasia “Star” Ettienne. She was not given bail during her arraignment in Queens Criminal Court. District Attorney Melinda Katz said in a statement, “This defendant maliciously ended the lives of two people by setting a fire that trapped a man and woman in a raging inferno. The victims tragically died from smoke inhalation and thermal injuries.”
Nargis Fakhri’s mother told the news outlet, “I don’t think she would be killing someone. She was a person who was caring for everybody. She tried to help everybody.” She also revealed her daughter struggled with the addition of opioids after a dental mishap.
A witness at the crime scene said, “We smelled something sweet burning. I don’t know if it was gasoline or what. We ran out and the couch on the stairs was on fire and we had to jump over it to get out. Star jumped over with me but she went back in to save [Jacobs]. It was an abusive relationship. She told everybody [in the past] she was going to burn his house down, that she was going to kill him. We just laughed at her.”
