@the.obscur3: When Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans in 2005, the failure of the city’s levees caused catastrophic flooding—including at Orleans Parish Prison. As water rushed into the jail complex, electricity failed, cell doors remained locked, and communication with staff collapsed. Some guards evacuated while others were unable or unwilling to return, leaving hundreds of inmates trapped inside dark, rapidly flooding cell blocks. Dirty, contaminated water rose from ankle-deep to chest-high in some areas, forcing prisoners to climb onto toilets, beds, or window bars just to keep their heads above water. Food, drinking water, and medical care disappeared, and desperate cries for help echoed through the building for days. At least one inmate drowned, while many others suffered extreme dehydration, illness, and trauma. Survivors later described the experience as being abandoned to die, and the incident sparked lawsuits and widespread outrage over how incarcerated people were neglected during one of the worst disasters in U.S. history.#truecrime #horrortok #scary #fyp

I get they were prisoners but yall act like they were all killers. Some had lighter sentences than the rest and yes arguably some deserved death but I just don’t think anyone deserves this kind of ending
