MATTRESS MACK ISSUES A STATEMENT AND SAYS HE'S NOT TALKING ANY MORE!

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE LATEST DEVELOPMENTS - THE FIRE RULED AN ARSON?

STATEMENT BY JIM “MATTRESS MACK” MCINGVALE
ON THE INVESTIGATION INTO LAST WEEK’S GALLERY FURNITURE FIRE


Linda and I were informed yesterday by investigators from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Houston Fire Department’s Arson Division that they have discovered evidence that last Thursday night’s fire at Gallery Furniture’s I-45 warehouse was not accidental.

Now that an official investigation has been opened, we have no comment on the matter except to ask any individual with any information that might assist investigators to call 1-888-ATF-FIRE or Crime Stoppers of Houston at 713-222-TIPS.

Linda and I also want to thank the brave men and women of the Houston Fire Department for their courageous efforts to save our store last week, as well as the thousands of Houstonians and fellow Texans who have expressed your support and encouragement for the Gallery Furniture family since then. Your kind words and prayers have kept us going through this challenging time.

Make no mistake: Gallery Furniture is strong, stable and excited about our future. We will overcome this hardship so we can continue serving our loyal customers.

    What a shame HPD was sending on duty police units to guard his business no they stop because of this possible insurance scam. I guess now he will have to hire some off duty cops to guard his business.

    Why aren't we hearing about any findings? There's a video that shows suspicious activity before the fire! Has the fire and investigation been dropped - both by the media (which JM's Gallery Furn ads support) and the law? We the public want to know the truth! Please tell us!
