The pink on the signs was a reference to the famous pink home of Susette Kelo, whose attempt to fight the taking of her home by eminent domain at Fort Trumbull led to the landmark U.S. Supreme Court case Kelo v. City of New London. The newest charge is a Class D felony and is punishable by up to five years in prison and a $5,000 fine with a conviction.
