Story highlights Joseph Schreiber pleads no contestOrlando shooter Omar Mateen attended the mosque before club massacre(CNN) The man accused of setting fire to a mosque frequented by Pulse Nightclub shooter Omar Mateen has been sentenced to 30 years in prison after pleading no contest to arson, according to St. Lucie County Prosecutor Steve Gosnell. Joseph Schreiber, 32, was accused of setting fire to the Islamic Center of Fort Pierce on the evening of September 11, 2016. Mateen, who killed 49 people at the Orlando nightclub in June, had attended the mosque. St. Lucie County crews responded after two drivers called 911 to report flames on the building's roof. The male approaches the northeast side of the building and a flash is seen, presumably when the fire ignited.
