Sewage was overflowing at military family’s Fort Jackson house. Then a 4-year-old got sick

A family is suing Fort Jackson’s housing provider, alleging continuous sewage leaks led to their four-year-old son contracting encephalitis, which can cause permanent brain damage.

Travis Wilson, a military chaplain, and his wife Jaclyn signed the lease for a house on the Fort Jackson military base in December 2022 and moved in with their six children shortly after. Problems with the house, particularly sewage problems, were immediately apparent, according to the complaint, filed in U.S. District Court earlier this month.

An upstairs toilet overflowed almost as soon as the family moved in. When maintenance workers arrived, they “simply locked the door to the bathroom and said they would return later.” While the Wilsons waited for the maintenance crew to return, sewage leaked through the ceiling and into the kitchen below, according to the complaint.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

If the people involved were illegal immigrants, the DOJ would have sent an assassination squad to do away with the people responsible.  But since they are only military people, it's no big deal. :whistle:

... a chaplain's child contracting encephalitis?  It doesn't get much worse than that.

Why the military is experiencing recruting and retention shortfalls?

I wonder how many times they've been denied by insurance to get the child medical treatments.

  • Well EXCUSE me!
Want to get the military housing fixed, make the highest ranking officers live in it until all are brought up to proper repair or the mold infested destroyed and rebuilt.
