Rosie Yanas has been dealing with change and tragedy. She's a grieving mother who said her arrest after taking down her neighbor's Confederate flag was 'unjust.'
A confrontation between neighbors - and a Confederate flag is at the center of it. The couple living next to it doesn't think it has a place at all in the neighborhood. And for added measure, the couple has confronted tragedy in the past.A fight over a Confederate flag finally came to a head in a Santa Fe neighborhood. The mother of Chris Stone, a student who was tragically killed in a mass shooting at the high school in 2018, says she and her family have been victims of racial intimidation.
That exchange happened in the middle of a Friday news conference to discuss the flag hanging from the Turrentine family's fence on East Bellaire Street. "He waited for me to come out at 2:00 in the afternoon, on the way to my brother's, put that flag up and said 'Merry Christmas.' On the first Christmas after I lost my son, and you are going to tell me I don't have a right to do something. I do everything I can to keep the peace, but a person can only take so much."
