Lots of blame to go around...

...the owner of the building had been cited by the city numerous times in the past and had a lien placed on the property for city clean-up outside.

The manager (lessee) rented it to the people inside and allowed a number to live there (they all knew it was illegal), to work and have events. Reports said he attached an additional transformer to the power supply which worked intermittently. One of the exits were blocked. A report today said a recently brought in refrigerator may have been the source of the fire.

The parents who allowed their underage kids to attend the party upstairs.

The city inspectors who stopped by 2 weeks ago, couldn't gain access and didn't come back. There are dozens of warehouses like this in the Oakland/Berkeley area where artist live and work.

The techies who have moved into the areas and driven up rents so this is the only place artists can live.

It may be your risk to live in a firetrap but what if a fire starts and kills you and the next door neighbors? That's what the codes are in place to prevent.
