10 year old charged for wildfires?

When you look at all of the devastation in California its hard to believe that all of this destruction was caused by a child playing with matches. Eight hundred miles, and over two thousand homes were destroyed. The articles I’ve read about it vary from trying him as an adult, to getting him counsellings.

All of these things revolve around the determination of whether or not the boy knew what he was doing was wrong. I’m sure the child new playing with matches was wrong, but did he know that his own house could catch fire? Did he know his neighborhood could catch fire?
