When his wife went to take a nap, he lit a pair of her pants and a box on fire, the charges state. When the fire got out of control, he roused his wife, who was sleeping in the basement.
Police responded to Whitaker's home to investigate the fire, determining it began in the northwest corner of the home. Whitaker told police he used the gas stove to light a long tapered candle, then ignited the blaze.

I misread that as "he lit a pair of her pants and her box on fire".
Where is Betty Whitaker live?
