Veteran crime reporter George Anastasia covered the Kaboni Savage federal trial in Philadelphia for Bigtrial.net.
Nine years later, Joe Finley still remembered.
Testifying at the racketeering-murder trial of drug kingpin Kaboni Savage back in April, Finley told a jury what he was thinking as he entered a burning row house in the 3200 block of North Sixth Street around 5 a.m. on Oct. 9, 2004.
"This is what hell looks like," the 28-year Philadelphia Fire Department veteran said.
"The whole room was like glowing...in a way that I hope I never get to know. But it seemed like it was ... hell. That's what it would remind you of. It was like being in hell. The whole room had this eerie glow to it."
