Water Restored at Prison, Rationing Continues
Prisoners at the Connally Unit in Karnes County spent another day rationing water. Officials say they restored water pressure to the prison but are now working on fixing leaks in pipes affected by the water woes. Last week problems with the city of Kenedy's water system caused the entire prison to lose water. Officials brought in 500 gallon water tankers and put everyone on a rotating shower and bathroom schedule. Officials canceled weekend visits for prisoners as well. Everything will get back to normal once the leaks have been fixed.
