Although State Farm Insurance covered the $909,199 in damages when the tragedy occurred, they are now expecting Kat to pay them back in full because, they allege, the blaze was her fault. Yes, her fault.
According to court documents, the house fire was caused by multiple lit candles that were "left unattended, and subsequently started a fire within the premises."
Her reps were not immediately available for comment.
