SAN BERNARDINO, Calif., Sept. 6 (UPI) -- Residents at an unlicensed group home in San Bernardino, Calif., were forced to live amid squalor and filth and were abused by staff members, officials allege.
City officials said the 22 elderly and mentally ill people living at the facility were fenced in by razor wire, lived in converted chicken coops, had no plumbing and were forced to use buckets for toilets, the Los Angeles Times reported Sunday.
