A $10,000 reward is being offered by investigators to anybody who can identify the arsonist. Sophia, Jonah, Max, and Reuben are the four children that Shapiro and his spouse had together.
Max and Reuben are children, while Sophie and Jonah are considered legal adults. Whether the two oldest were there in the house when the fire broke out is unknown.
‘From the Shapiro family’s Seder table to yours, happy Passover and Chag Pesach Sameach!’ Shapiro, who is Jewish, wished X a happy Passover just before the fire broke out.
