Conditions at Camp Atterbury in southern Johnson County have allegedly deteriorated to the point that some refugees being held at the facility are “defecating on tables” and “cleaning their clothes in toilets.”

A source known to the Hammer and Nigel Show who serves in the National Guard told WIBC’s Jason Hammer via direct message Monday that he witnessed the disturbing situation first-hand.

“It’s absolutely disgusting what I am seeing,” the source said in his message, later adding that some refugees are stealing license plates and antennas from vehicles to craft makeshift weapons.

“There have been shank fights,” the source wrote. “We were told to keep a vigilant eye out because [refugees] were able to obtain knives at the Post Exchange [when they arrived].”

He added that “some Taliban members” have been identified in the vetting process at Camp Atterbury and shipped back to Afghanistan; however, as many as 47 unvetted refugees that were awaiting processing are now missing.

WIBC has not independently verified the source’s claims, which have been refuted by another source who is currently working at Camp Atterbury.

Rep. Victoria Spartz and Rep. Greg Pence visited the Indiana National Guard at Camp Atterbury over the weekend, where just shy of 7,000 people evacuated out of Afghanistan last month are now living in temporary quarters.

Spartz said in an appearance on Newsmax that the process is tough in figuring out who everyone is and where they need to go.

“Over 66-hundred people, only 25 had actual documents,” Spartz said to Newsmax. “Only half of them had some kind of status in trying to apply (for asylum or legal immigration to the US.)

She added that around 200 women at Atterbury are pregnant.
