What about the county jail?

[AngryAmish]

Is the jail underwater? What did they do with the prisoners?

1. Haven't you ever seen "Deer Hunter"?

something a lot like that, maybe...?

2. I've not seen one printed word or heard one person speak about the

jails and prisons.
All I know is that these people weren't moved.

3. there was something about an evacuation

But it wasn't the a in New Orleans proper.

I'd not be surprised to see a bunch of prisoners drowned in their cages at the end of this, given Republican family values and the like.

4. There was video on CNN with the prisoners on

a bridge above the prison.

5. I heard I think it was Sunday

when the Mayor of NOLA and the Governor were talking about evacuation - one of the reporters asked what about evacuating the prisoners and someone answered - don't know who - not Governor or Mayor said they would stay where they belong. Haven't heard anything other than that.
