Relationship Is Suspected as Motive in Fatal Fire By ANDY NEWMAN

The fire that killed two adults and two children in a Brooklyn apartment on Saturday was a murder-suicide, probably stemming from a failed relationship, the authorities said yesterday.
The man who set the fire, Riboule Lemorin, appeared to have entered a bedroom where five people were sleeping, doused the room and then himself in gasoline, and lighted a match, said Louis Garcia, the city's chief fire marshal.
The fire, in a sixth-floor apartment at 901 Washington Avenue, near Crown Street, in Crown Heights, killed a 38-year-old woman, Nadege Viaud, and her sons Jeffrey, 5, and Bernard, 2, besides Mr. Lemorin, 43, who also lived in the small apartment. Three other people were injured in the fire: Ms. Viaud's aunt Juni Gerard, another of Ms. Viaud's three sons and a 63-year-old man.
Law enforcement officials said that although the authorities were not certain of a motive, they were increasingly inclined to believe that Mr. Lemorin either had or wanted a romantic relationship with Ms. Viaud, whom some relatives described as also a relative of his, and that he was rebuffed.
"There's clearly something that sets him off," an official said. "Maybe she rejected his overtures. Maybe they had a relationship that was ending."
Ms. Viaud was from Haiti and had a husband, Jean-Claude Viaud, who still lives in Haiti but had come to Brooklyn in December to spend the holidays with his family, relatives said. He was in Boston with other relatives when the fire broke out, at 3 a.m. on Saturday, they said. One official said that Mr. Viaud had come to take his wife back to Haiti.
Relatives of the extended family, who live on the fifth floor of the building, said they could not believe Mr. Lemorin capable of torching himself and his relatives. They described him as a quiet, calm man who showed no sign of being distraught.
The finding of murder-suicide was reported yesterday in The New York Sun.
One official said that investigators had considered the possibility that someone else had set the fire and left, but that there was "overwhelming evidence" pointing to Mr. Lemorin.
Chief Garcia said that while most of Mr. Lemorin's clothes were burned off, "whatever clothes he had left had gasoline odor on them."
The law enforcement official said that it would have been almost impossible for someone to have set the fire and left the apartment without serious burns. "It was a firebomb in there," the official said.
Ms. Viaud's aunt, Juni Gerard, 57, was in critical condition last night at New York Weill Cornell Center in Manhattan. Ms. Viaud's surviving son, Marven, 8, was also in critical condition at the hospital. Another occupant of the apartment, Joseph Gautier, 63, was also injured in the fire.
Ms. Gerard's sister-in-law, Francia Gerard, who lives on the fifth floor, said yesterday that Mr. Lemorin had immigrated from Haiti within the last couple of years and had lived with Ms. Gerard and her niece and grandnephews for about a year.
"He was living with other relatives in Brooklyn in a very crowded apartment, and his family called and asked Juni if she could find a place for him," Francia Gerard said, speaking in Spanish. Relatives described Juni Gerard, a home health attendant, as the matriarch of the family, who helped many relatives in Haiti immigrate to New York.
Francia Gerard said that Mr. Lemorin had worked in a parking lot in Brooklyn at one point. She described him as "very quiet and calm" and said that his only known vice was that he was a heavy smoker. "He would always be smoking and talking on his cellphone," she said.
Several neighbors said they had never heard fighting or any sign of unrest in the apartment that burned. Cassie Sutton, 45, a resident of the building for more than 20 years, said that Mr. Lemorin "did not appear to be distressed or depressed."
"This guy who smiles at everyone and goes to church every Sunday?" she said. "I don't believe it. He was a very reserved individual. But I've never felt any type of negative vibe from the family."
When told of the authorities' theory that a failed relationship with Ms. Viaud had led Mr. Lemorin to set the fire, Francia Gerard grew incensed.
"It's impossible," she said. "It's all conjecture. How could they know? No one in this family has said any such thing to them.
"Please let me end this," she said, and shut her apartment door tight.

I am actually v v surprised that my immediate area is as clear as that map shows b/c I know there was shit happening around when I lived at Franklin and Dean -- but I guess getting mugged, held up at knife-point, etc doesn't count here. Plus the registered sex offenders map is like HORRIFYINGLY densely populated in the same neighborhood, tho I understand that is people's residences and this crime map is the location of the crimes. Still.
