Community destroyed by Charley ignored by government officals

"We've been promised two tractor-trailers of water. They say it's coming. They all say it's coming," said Joseph A. Marzella, deputy chief of Pine Island Fire and Rescue.

He did his best to conceal his disgust; his men had worked themselves ragged trying to help residents.

"Why don't they take care of the poor people?" one man shouted. Another said, "Where are the government workers? Why have they not come to help us?"
