minus-squaresnooggumslinkEnglish16•edit-21 month ago They provided bags and sand but residents had to bring shovels and fill their own bags. I guess you read the first paragraph and skipped the rest? In a Facebook post, the Lake County Sheriff’s Office said inmates are “assisting residents that are not capable of filling their own sandbags.” There is zero chance all of the inmates volunteered to do this. They were coerced or forced to participate.
