if it indeed turns out to be racially motivated.

Seems unlikely. Of course without that, it's not a news story, it's a two page police report.

Seems unlikely.

Quote:

The home on Lanier Drive, just north of Cumming, burned to the ground early Sunday morning. Owner Pam Graf was in Washington D.C for the Obama inauguration when the fire broke out. Hate-filled graffiti was sprayed on a fence near Graf's home. Graf said she also received a threatening letter last month.

...

While not officially calling this a hate crime or arson, Forsyth County fire investigators are seeking federal help. ATF agents are working the case, and the FBI has been contacted and is said to be "following the case".

Seems pretty plausible to me.

Wouldn't the graffiti be on her fence, rather than one "near her home"?

Pretty sure you could find hate-filled graffiti on lots of surfaces in Atlanta.

I don't know. Maybe she had no fence?
