(CBS) – A Michigan woman has been sentenced to 35 to 60 years in prison, nearly three years after a man and his two dogs died in a fire, the Michigan Attorney General’s Office announced.

Investigators said Hope Snyder, 43, of Kincheloe, set fire to Jeffery Grant’s home in Fountain, Michigan, on Nov. 22, 2021, while he was sleeping. An investigation revealed that an argument had arisen between Snyder and Grant that night over text messages and social media. Snyder also told friends that she planned to steal Grant’s money and his truck and burn down his house.

After setting fire to the house, she fled in Grant’s truck and was arrested at Detroit Metro Airport, according to the Attorney General’s Office.

Snyder pleaded no contest to second-degree murder, first-degree arson and two counts of second-degree manslaughter/cruelty to animals.

“A lengthy prison sentence will never ease the pain and loss Mr. Grant’s family is suffering, but it is a just measure of accountability for the heinous, violent acts that took his life,” Attorney General Dana Nessel said in a statement. “I am grateful for the hard work and cooperation of the Mason County Sheriff’s and District Attorney’s Offices, the Michigan State Police and the prosecutors in my department who ensured that justice was served today.”
