Description
Forty state inmates were safely relocated from the Millard County Jail to the Utah State Correctional Facility as a precaution against the rapidly spreading Widemouth 2 Fire, which threatened over a thousand homes near Fillmore. The move, handled smoothly by the Utah Department of Corrections, ensured inmate and public safety while firefighters battled the blaze. Inmates, all general population, will remain at the state prison until conditions stabilize — a proactive measure underscoring how wildfires can disrupt even secure facilities and why contingency plans are vital.
