A New Orleans Greyhound Bus Station that was converted into a temporary jail made a complaint to the Louisiana corrections department late last week. According to Pam Laborde, communications director of Louisiana's department of corrections, Greyhound Bus Lines took exception to being nicknamed “Camp Greyhound”. Laborde announced that the makeshift prison would now be called Angola South', named after New Orleans' Angola prison, which is one of America's biggest maximum-security facilities. The temporary prison houses prisoners from Angola prison, as well as criminals that looted after Hurricane Katrina. |
