Issues With Water Supply At Westgate Facility
There have been ongoing issues with the water supply at the Westgate Correctional Facility, with unofficial information suggesting there has been lack of running water for showers and flushing the toilet.
One individual close to the situation questioned how the incarcerated men can be be in a mindset to be rehabilitated and educated when they can’t flush their toilets or shower. The person said that as of this morning, partial water service has apparently been restored at Westgate, and during the outage, bottled water had been provided.
