Wow…meth addicts get down like that? Idiots.

A woman was arrested for burning down a historic Seminole County tree named The Senator, and only WFTV reporter Mary Nguyen was at the scene. The historic cypress tree, believed to be thousands of years old, was destroyed in a fire on Jan. 16. State agents arrested 26-year-old Sarah Barnes, who hid her face when deputies took her away in handcuffs.

Barnes was arrested for burning down The Senator in Big Tree Park in Longwood. The 118-foot-tall bald cypress was about 3,500 years old and was the fifth oldest tree in the world.

But the dumbest part is how she got caught:

Agents said Barnes took pictures of the fire and downloaded the images to her cellphone and computer. Officials said she showed people the images, and said “I can’t believe I burned down a tree older then Jesus.” Flames burned the tree from the inside out.

So you’re going to take pictures of the whole thing too? Yeah, we’re not surprised she was on drugs.
