Green Party Candidate McKinney Accuses Government of Mass Inmate Executions

When hurricane Katrina hit Louisiana, there was massive flooding and evacuations. The inmates in the prisons there were not evacuated, and reports came in that they were abandoned by prison staff and left there to die, without food, water, toilets, proper ventilation, and airborne disease for days.

Recently Cynthia McKinney, presidential candidate for The Green Party has come forward with information she claims she received from a mother of a national guardsman who was assigned to dispose of dead bodies, and had also signed a "silent agreement". She also stated that the Red Cross has backed up her allegations.

According to Fox News McKinney claims the Department of Defense gave the order to execute 5000 inmates with a single gunshot to the head, and then dispose of their bodies by throwing them in a swamp. She stated that the Pentagon used Hurricane Katrina to cover up the massive executions, and that the information was in the Pentagon computer.

Fox reported that a defense department spokesman stated "The claim is outrageous on the very face of it and doesn't merit any further consideration," said Lt. Col. Les' Melnyk. "
