Season 3 may be in full swing, but there’s still a previous story that people can’t let go of. Who is the serial arsonist in Fire Country that had fans excited in Season 1?

Country of Fire Season 3 Main character Bode is in the midst of taking CBS by storm as he tries and fails to convince his team that he deserves to stay. For those who don’t watch, binge-worthy TV show It follows a plan for prison inmates that allows them to volunteer on the California fire brigade.

Season 1 had a different kind of drama. A series of unexplained fires have broken out throughout the area, with police believing they were caused by a serial arsonist working at Station 42. In other words, it was an environmental inside job.

However, they quickly identified the wrong man as the suspect; Here’s everything you need to know about the real arsonist in the Land of Fire.

Fire Country’s arsonist calls a double bluff

After placing the blame on another prime suspect, The arsonist of Fire Country is revealed to be Collin O’Reilly – but this is not his real name. His real identity is Alex Shawcross.

Fans saw Collin join the cast in Season 1, Episode 2, and Collin immediately became curious about Bode’s past. He disdains the fact that he is a criminal – although Gabriela immediately comes to his defense, Bode is almost accidentally injured when he steps on a rock loosening debris from the cliff during a call.

Later in the series, Collin almost faded into the background. But that changes when Investigator Erika Snow arrives at the station to try to find the mysterious serial arsonist.

On Collin’s day off from the firehouse, he arrives at a fire at a nearby house while he was supposedly off duty. During a phone call, fans learn that it was Collin who told the police about the current prime suspect’s past (but more on that later).

As a result, Bode uses the fake story to light a fire to get Collin to talk. As Bode tells more lies, he becomes convinced that Collin is not telling the truth.

Of course, it turns out that not only is he the culprit, but his real name is Alex Shawcross. Originally from Arizona, he joined the station and moved to California under an assumed name.

Jake was the prime suspect in the attacks

Before Alex’s truth is revealed, All eyes were on Jake Crawford Thanks to similar events in his childhood.

When Jake was younger, as a child, he started a fire. This was leaked to the police by Collin, who had his sights set on him as the prime suspect in the arson attacks.

This suspicion grows even more when Sharon learns that Jake was in Drak Country at the time of the attack, or at least was there just before the attack. When you ask him about it, Jake evades.

Of course, this is all proven wrong when Jake is proven innocent, leading him to be more open with Bode about his family life, especially his half-brother.

We still see Jake at Station 42 in Fire Country Season 3… and let’s just say he Negative I’m glad things went well with Bode.
