The message read: "AG Bonta — Altadena demands an investigation."
"Our message was to the attorney general," said Gina Clayton-Johnson, one of the two people seen holding the sign on Thursday morning. "We unfurled the banner at the time we hoped cameras would see it. Once that happened, we felt satisfied with that."
She was one of several people riding the Rising Together float, a tribute to Eaton and Palisades fire victims. The devastating fires, which burned at the same time on opposite sides of Los Angeles County, destroyed thousands of homes and businesses and killed 31 people, 19 of whom died in the Eaton Fire.
The "Rising Together" Rose Parade float is a tribute to the Eaton and Palisades fire victims. CBS LAClayton-Johnson lost her childhood home in the fire, where her parents were still living. She and her husband, along with their two children, are planning to return to Altadena to rebuild. She's hopeful that Attorney General Rob Bonta will not only seek justice but lead an investigation that will help prevent similar fire disasters in the future.
Though Altadena is not technically a city and is without a mayor, the area falls in the district of LA County Supervisor Kathryn Barger. She told CBS LA in a statement that she agrees with Eaton Fire survivors who have valid questions about the issues with safety alerts and emergency warnings.
Barger went on to say that she won't move on until there are clear answers for the community. Clayton-Johnson said that her statement wasn't just about her, but about the 19 people who died in January.
Attorney General Rob Bonta's Office sent the following response and referred updated fire investigation inquiries to the Office of the Governor of California.
"To protect their integrity, we're unable to comment on, even to confirm or deny, potential or ongoing investigations."
