A popular folk singer who lived for more than 20 years in Brooklyn has been arrested in Haiti by U.S. marines who accuse her of plotting against American troops there.
But relatives of the woman, Annette Auguste, known professionally as So Anne, say she did noting unlawful and they accuse Marines of using grossly excessive force -- including her two pet dogs and arresting and handcuffing her five-year-old grandson.
"It seemed like they were going after Osama bin Laden or something," said her son Reginald Auguste, who lives in the Flatbush section of Brooklyn.
