Homeowners argue the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers violated the Fifth Amendment by flooding their property without compensation, despite following their own water control manual. A federal judge finally sided with the homeowners in April, ruling the Corps liable for $8 billion in damages. The Corps has deferred comment to the Justice Department, while residents like Cynthia Neely await compensation that could offer long-term security. This case sets a major precedent for future disaster response and property rights nationwide. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
