Specifically it was one known communist- as well as a known Pyromaniac- Marinus van Der Lubbe, who was apparently found on scene with a lot of burn residue. And notably he offered no defense at his trial and was the only one of several defendants (including many leading Comintern agents) who was convicted (which led Hitler to spazz out at the audacity of the judiciary would have a fair trial.).

Apparently moron wanted to torch the place as some kind of grand signal to start the Communist Revolution without actually telling anyone his plans.

But of course bad actors can usually plan. Same reason why that bitch drafted up an Enabling Act on January 5th.
