The victim told police that when he returned to the home, he found a fire inside. It was extinguished by a sprinkler system.
Finley, 29, of the 700 block of Delafield Street in Washington, D.C., is charged with attempted first-degree murder, first-degree arson and first-degree assault.
She turned herself in at the Franklin Precinct Monday afternoon and is being held without bail at the Baltimore County Detention Center. She did not have an attorney listed in online court records.
