He devastated the ecosystem and dried up the Owens Valley Lake. I think that’s what it’s called. It was totally gone by the 1920s I think and then after he diverted that water built his damn which he couldn’t know at that time on a type of rock that disintegrates with water overtime, but he got greedy and he increased how large the amount of water that dam could leak. He also had an opportunity to let people know ahead of time with the warning, you know hey we might have some issues here and you know could’ve saved most of those people. He never went to jail, but he quietly you know faded into history their name streets after he didn’t bring the aqueduct there, but local forms branch that lost the water and livelihoods wetland to find the wildlife habitats that deter he failed to adequately plan for extra water. If you know it was a release so I think it’s called the Saint Francis damn disaster in 28 Santa Clara he was corrupt. He was a narcissist and you know he did a lot of immoral things.

There’s still people who are buried deep underground that haven’t been found. Random bones have also turn up every few years.

The Dam failed in 1928, which should give some context to "bodies turning up until the 1950s"

His biggest failure. Fun fact Mulholland wanted to damn Yosemite. He said “ take a picture to rember it”. That guy had the worst quotes

That area is super haunted, San Francisquito, people crash like all the time on that road, and its just windy. Its really flat, the place makes people upset and then panic. Not like you will see things, but the energy in the area is dangerous. You can become vexed by the place.
