Alameda County prosecutors charged two men with 36 counts of involuntary manslaughter in the tragic Ghost Ship warehouse fire in Oakland, saying the defendants "knowingly created a firetrap." District Attorney Nancy O’Malley said the fire's 36 victims “faced a nearly impossible labyrinth of the defendants’ making.” Reports suggest that substandard, faulty electrical work was likely to blame for the fire.
