A Massachusetts sheriff proposed that inmates from his county jail would be the perfect candidates to build President-elect Donald Trump’s proposed wall an idea that has been likened to “modern-day slave labor.”
Bristol County Sheriff Thomas Hodgson, a Republican, said last week during his inaugural ceremony, “I can think of no other project that would have such a positive impact on our inmates and our country than building this wall.”
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Massachusetts slammed the proposal.
