<v Speaker 2>Don't here to day for Wednesday, May twenty second, goes

0:00:06.880 --> 0:00:09.399
<v Speaker 2>to Marfa Boughs. Now, we live in a world where

0:00:09.440 --> 0:00:12.800
<v Speaker 2>everybody wants their flowers. Everybody wants to be celebrated, everybody

0:00:12.880 --> 0:00:15.680
<v Speaker 2>wants to be honored. And folks aren't waiting on someone

0:00:15.760 --> 0:00:18.119
<v Speaker 2>to give them their flowers. They grow on them theyself,

0:00:18.280 --> 0:00:20.560
<v Speaker 2>and in some cases they are taking them. I want

0:00:20.560 --> 0:00:22.360
<v Speaker 2>to ask you a question, Jess, how do you feel

0:00:22.400 --> 0:00:24.520
<v Speaker 2>about people giving you your flowers? Do you receive them

0:00:24.560 --> 0:00:25.160
<v Speaker 2>when they are given?

0:00:25.440 --> 0:00:26.239
<v Speaker 3>I do receive them.

0:00:26.280 --> 0:00:28.120
<v Speaker 4>Yes, I feel like I've come a long way, but

0:00:28.200 --> 0:00:30.800
<v Speaker 4>I have a lot of ways to go. We have

0:00:30.840 --> 0:00:32.600
<v Speaker 4>a long way to go. But yeah, I give I

0:00:32.720 --> 0:00:34.040
<v Speaker 4>like when people give them my flowers.

0:00:34.080 --> 0:00:36.159
<v Speaker 2>Have you ever felt like you wasn't being respected and

0:00:36.200 --> 0:00:38.519
<v Speaker 2>you wanted your flowers so much that you would take them?

0:00:38.720 --> 0:00:39.400
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely not.

0:00:40.880 --> 0:00:44.080
<v Speaker 4>No, Okay, I don't believe in taking the flowers. I

0:00:44.159 --> 0:00:46.919
<v Speaker 4>really don't believe flowers give you validation. It feels good

0:00:47.000 --> 0:00:48.879
<v Speaker 4>to be honored, but I'm not gonna have to take

0:00:48.880 --> 0:00:49.599
<v Speaker 4>nobody flowers.

0:00:49.840 --> 0:00:53.960
<v Speaker 2>Well, Marfa Boos Marpha Bowles disagrees with you. Okay, she

0:00:54.000 --> 0:00:56.520
<v Speaker 2>took her flowers. She wanted to be celebrated, so she

0:00:56.600 --> 0:00:58.680
<v Speaker 2>decided to celebrate herself. Let's go to forty eight on

0:00:58.720 --> 0:00:59.720
<v Speaker 2>your side for the report place.

0:01:00.280 --> 0:01:03.720
<v Speaker 5>The Dcam County Sheriff's Office arrested and charged Martha Bow's

0:01:03.760 --> 0:01:07.080
<v Speaker 5>with theft of property and the desecration of a grave site.

0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:09.600
<v Speaker 5>This after deputy say she was found with a large

0:01:09.600 --> 0:01:13.480
<v Speaker 5>collection of floral arrangements inside her home, and family members

0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:16.679
<v Speaker 5>of those buried here at Painter Cemetery say they caught

0:01:16.720 --> 0:01:17.639
<v Speaker 5>her in the act.

0:01:18.120 --> 0:01:20.720
<v Speaker 2>I think that's probably one of the lowest things somebody

0:01:20.760 --> 0:01:21.119
<v Speaker 2>to do.

0:01:21.480 --> 0:01:24.760
<v Speaker 5>These are clips from surveillance footage of Martha Bo's caught

0:01:24.840 --> 0:01:28.000
<v Speaker 5>in the act stealing multiple flower arrangements from graves at

0:01:28.040 --> 0:01:31.320
<v Speaker 5>Painter Cemetery in Crossville following decoration day.

0:01:32.000 --> 0:01:35.759
<v Speaker 2>Stealing flowers from a dead person's grave. Stealing flowers from

0:01:35.760 --> 0:01:37.640
<v Speaker 2>a dead person's grave is like taking all the picture

0:01:37.640 --> 0:01:39.680
<v Speaker 2>frames out of blind person's house, because it's not like

0:01:39.720 --> 0:01:41.840
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna notice unless they, Stevie want to. Stevie wanted

0:01:41.840 --> 0:01:43.840
<v Speaker 2>would notice. Let me tell you something, man, whatever is

0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:45.760
<v Speaker 2>for you will be for you. Okay, whatever you are

0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:49.000
<v Speaker 2>supposed to have, you won't have to force. I understand

0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:51.360
<v Speaker 2>if you want your flowers, but if you're gonna take them,

0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:54.240
<v Speaker 2>if you're gonna steal them, don't take them from someone else,

0:01:54.600 --> 0:01:58.560
<v Speaker 2>especially someone who's deceased. Okay, this is exactly why they say,

0:01:58.600 --> 0:02:00.840
<v Speaker 2>give me my flowers while I'm here to smell them,

0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:02.920
<v Speaker 2>because if I can smell them, that means I'm still alive,

0:02:03.000 --> 0:02:05.040
<v Speaker 2>and if I'm alive, that means they are harder to.

0:02:04.960 --> 0:02:05.440
<v Speaker 1>Take from me.

0:02:05.760 --> 0:02:08.080
<v Speaker 2>Not to mention, who were you people that just like

0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:09.959
<v Speaker 2>to play around in graveyards. I was born in the

0:02:10.040 --> 0:02:12.880
<v Speaker 2>nineteen hundreds. We didn't play around the graveyards. We went

0:02:12.919 --> 0:02:15.440
<v Speaker 2>to funerals. We went to visit and pay all respect.

0:02:15.680 --> 0:02:17.600
<v Speaker 2>Anything outside of that was guaranteed you to be the

0:02:17.600 --> 0:02:20.239
<v Speaker 2>plot of some horror movie. Okay, the thought of someone

0:02:20.320 --> 0:02:22.840
<v Speaker 2>wandering around the graveyard for no reason makes me feel

0:02:22.880 --> 0:02:25.280
<v Speaker 2>like Michael Mayer's about to pop out and show niggas.

0:02:25.440 --> 0:02:28.440
<v Speaker 2>And sometimes for people like Martha Bowles, I wish they did.

0:02:28.480 --> 0:02:30.119
<v Speaker 2>Did you ever do that just when you was playing

0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:31.520
<v Speaker 2>with them white people in Pennsylvania?

0:02:31.600 --> 0:02:31.680
<v Speaker 6>What?

0:02:31.800 --> 0:02:33.399
<v Speaker 3>First of all, I wasn't playing with no white people,

0:02:33.480 --> 0:02:34.120
<v Speaker 3>But did I do what?

0:02:34.600 --> 0:02:35.800
<v Speaker 1>Was like this play around the graveyard.

0:02:36.320 --> 0:02:38.280
<v Speaker 4>No, I did not, and none of my white friends

0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:40.120
<v Speaker 4>did that. We didn't do They weren't that weird.

0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:40.760
<v Speaker 1>That's right.

0:02:40.960 --> 0:02:44.160
<v Speaker 2>That's how I know we have officially reached the ghetto

0:02:44.240 --> 0:02:47.760
<v Speaker 2>point of no return here on earth. The dead don't

0:02:47.760 --> 0:02:50.560
<v Speaker 2>even care if you disrespect them no more. They're like, man,

0:02:50.600 --> 0:02:53.079
<v Speaker 2>take them petty ass flowers. Whatever brings your punk ass

0:02:53.160 --> 0:02:56.080
<v Speaker 2>joy on that side, because y'all needed more than I do. Hell,

0:02:56.280 --> 0:02:59.560
<v Speaker 2>the deceased may pity us because flowers are expensive.

0:03:00.000 --> 0:03:01.360
<v Speaker 1>The other's day was earlier this month.

0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:03.360
<v Speaker 2>You gotta think if you got a mother, a grandma,

0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:06.000
<v Speaker 2>or sister, a wife, aunts that can get expensive.

0:03:06.160 --> 0:03:07.919
<v Speaker 1>Before you know it, you're gonna spend seven hundred dollars

0:03:07.960 --> 0:03:08.480
<v Speaker 1>in flowers.

0:03:08.560 --> 0:03:10.760
<v Speaker 2>Okay, that lady probably walked through that grave and saw

0:03:10.760 --> 0:03:13.640
<v Speaker 2>that expensive bass floral arrangement and thought to herself, what

0:03:13.760 --> 0:03:16.399
<v Speaker 2>a waste. They can't even smell them. Let me get

0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:19.000
<v Speaker 2>those ladies. Y'all say, y'all want a man that can

0:03:19.040 --> 0:03:21.519
<v Speaker 2>get you flowers every week? Well, a dozen roses is

0:03:21.560 --> 0:03:23.519
<v Speaker 2>about one hundred dollars, so that's four hundred dollars a month.

0:03:23.520 --> 0:03:25.960
<v Speaker 2>That's almost five grand a year for something that dies

0:03:26.000 --> 0:03:28.400
<v Speaker 2>after four days, So I can understand the thought process

0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:30.480
<v Speaker 2>of someone that says, I might as well steal these

0:03:30.520 --> 0:03:32.560
<v Speaker 2>flowers because they're gonna be dead in the next thirty

0:03:32.600 --> 0:03:35.640
<v Speaker 2>six hours. Anyway, this person gonna be dead forever. They

0:03:35.640 --> 0:03:37.480
<v Speaker 2>are in a better place, and these flowers need to

0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:38.360
<v Speaker 2>be in a better place too.

0:03:38.680 --> 0:03:40.080
<v Speaker 1>Listen, I need.

0:03:39.960 --> 0:03:42.560
<v Speaker 2>You all to start treating actual dead people the way

0:03:42.600 --> 0:03:43.800
<v Speaker 2>you treat that man or.

0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:45.120
<v Speaker 1>Woman who ghosted you.

0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:48.800
<v Speaker 2>If someone ghost you, you should respect the dead and

0:03:48.880 --> 0:03:52.200
<v Speaker 2>never disturb them again. Can we please start giving actual

0:03:52.280 --> 0:03:55.520
<v Speaker 2>dead people the same energy? Please give Martha bows, the
