Hurricane victims are being left to die; stories emerge of bodies washing up in rural areas
Leo Hohmann – Leo’s Newsletter Oct 3, 2024
There is a heart-wrenching story developing in the mountans and hills of Western North Carolina and Eastern Tennessee, a story that is not being told in the mainstream corporate media.
Stories of starving, dehydrated people being left to die. And bodies, lots of bodies, washing up in rural areas, many of them unrecognizable.
One such story comes from Nate and Katie Kramer, a husband and wife in Parrotsville, Tennessee (Cocke County), just east of Newport, Tennessee, located roughly midway between Knoxville, Tennessee, and Asheville, North Carolina. This area was inundated with 20-plus inches of rain pouring over a dammed up river compliments of Hurricane Helene.
Nate Kramer related in a YouTube video his heartbreaking experience of finding a body Tuesday that had washed up on the couple’s small farming homestead.
Fast-forward to the 3:33 mark and listen to this emotional and tragic story
—
There’s almost no coverage of the extent of the suffering taking place right now in the mountains of Western North Carolina and Eastern Tennessee, where the victims of Hurricane Helene are still without power one week after the storm hit and dumped a record amount of rain, and now the food and water is running out.
Large swath of Georgia are also still without power and cell service. People are thirsty, some are beginning to starve to death. They have no cellphones or means of communicating with the outside world.
The federal government has done nothing to help the immediate situation. Literally nothing. Despite what you hear them say in interviews with the corporate media, FEMA has not shown up, as the situation grows more desperate by the day.
But there are private individuals and groups who are trying to rescue these desperate Americans.
On Wednesday night, broadcast journalist Brannon Howse interviewed three private search-and-rescue operators who are affiliated with a nonprofit organization called Aerial Recovery.
The group has been working in Florida as well as in North Carolina doing search and rescue work following the devastation left by Hurricane Helene.
Howse was joined Wednesday night by Charlie Tevo, Jonathan Howard and Zev Hadley, three members of Aerial Recovery specializing in helicopter and other types of daring rescues.
Jonathan Howard said he had been working in North Carolina three days and was getting “very upset” about what he was seeing. He and his crew were being denied access from government officials, and the lack of government support he found on the ground was astonishing.
But this is not just a matter of not showing up. It’s even worse than that.
Those government officials who are on the ground are working to prevent private rescues from taking place.
There are stories from eye witnesses of bodies being found washed into gullies, ditches and ravines.
Dozens, if not hundreds, of unidentified bodies are reportedly sitting in a morgue at an Asheville hospital.
If not for Zev Hadley and his helicopters, even more would be dead.
Hadley and his crew, including a pilot identified only as “Mark,” rescued an 11-day-old baby earlier this week in dramatic fashion.
Here’s a clip from Howse’s exclusive interview with the three men. You can watch the full interview here. The men share their story of rescuing the starving and dehydrated infant and flying it to an Asheville hospital to receive life-saving medical treatment.
“If I did not have Zev’s helicopter that baby would have been dead, because we just did not have the government’s assistance,” said Jonathan Howard.
At one point in the interview, the men explained how the federal government is actually impeding the rescue efforts (this conversation begins at roughly the 6:38 mark).
“The federal government, none of them are there. And the county officials, they don’t want us in there. We actually were turned away from Lake Lure and Chimney Rock, and we were turned away by the police. We also had a news crew in there from a national news agency and they were not allowed in. So there’s criminal activity going on.”
It also must be said that this catastrophe is taking place is Trump country. Western North Carolina, Eastern Tennessee, upstate South Carolina and parts of Georgia, the very areas hit hardest by the hurricane, are overwhelmingly voting for Trump in the November 5 presidential election.
But if your house is destroy and you are literally trying to survive in an atmosphere with little or no food, water and shelter, and your cell service is out, will you be thinking about voting? What if you are fine but you haven’t heard from a family member since the storm hit. You are searching for them, wondering if you will find them dead or alive. Will you be thinking about voting? I don’t think so.
So we have to wonder if this is not only a humanitarian tragedy being left unattended by the federal government but whether it may also be a concentrated voter suppression effort.
The election is now just one month away. And I’m sure more facts will become available in the days and weeks ahead that will shed more light on whether our worst suspicions turn out to be true.
Aerial Recovery is raising money to continue its search and rescue operations in the wake of Hurricane Helene. The best way to donate to this particular effort is to go to Instagram and type in “Aerial Revovery” in the search bar. Their page will pop up with a donate button.
FEMA is now saying it doesn’t have enough money to make it though the hurricane season. The U.S. government is giving away billions of dollars to foreign nations, and to house, feed and educate illegal aliens, but they have nothing for Americans dying in storm-ravaged areas of the Southeast.
While the administration sends billions more to Ukraine, Vice President Kamala Harris has offered a laughable $750 in FEMA relief for hurricane victims. Watch video link below:

So, one week into the worst hurricane to hit America since Katrina in 2005, here’s the running tally showing the federal government’s priorities.
The Biden-Harris administration has approved:
- $8.7 billion in military aid for Israel
- $8 billion in military aid for Ukraine
- $567 million in military support for Taiwan
- $750 one-time emergency assistance payment for American victims of Hurricane Helene.
Let that sink in. And let it serve as inspiration for your own preparation plans should your area be the next to be hit with a disaster, whether man-made or an act of God in nature.

“Hurricane victims are being left to die; stories emerge of bodies washing up in rural areas”
Correction: White people left to die…
The three rescuers also said FEMA was taking credit for what they had done, while preventing rescues
It has already been said that this horrendous rainfall and damage is MANMADE!! Why else would FEMA abandon these unfortunate people in their hour of need? Just more examples of government treachery and where in hell is the goddam Congress on this issue?
People are being stopped from making rescue efforts including one pilot with his own helicopter. Word is only about 10% of the local population have flood insurance so those who don’t have it will be homeless. The suspicion is Blackrock owns mining rights there and wants the land emptied because of a rich supply of lithium in the area, and if the place is depopulated mining can go on unhindered with no concern about by-laws limiting noise, pollution or forcing by-passes to be built etc. All achieved by weather warfare.
It’s a land clearance, just like the old days. A new Trail of Tears. Today it’s not Native Americans pushed out for gold that wasn’t there but poor whites pushed out for lithium that is. Capitalism became murderous.
Kamala Harris has said each family, not resident, will receive a $750 grant. I take it the Biden government hopes that’s enough money for them to move out with?
DHS was set up to loot the nation and enrich Jews after the post 911 Amerikan Holocaust.
The tell tale sign the storm was engineered is that Biden won’t help – the intention was to destroy all along. It is full on war against us.
Jews get all the money while the goy suffer and die. Weimar Amerika.
Majorkis needs to be arrested for treason and executed.
One reason the evils flooded North Carolina with weather weapon created Helene

Time 2 kick ALL ‘JEWS’ out of senate better yet..US and s quit funding IsraHELL and use that money to help the people of NC!!
and still no mention of actually fighting back and taking your country back
I remember reading a long time ago, probably on this site, about a big hurricane in Florida I think.
Government corruption and something sinister showed their face during the aftermath.
Does anyone here remember the story and the name of the storm?
America’s version of Scotland’s “Highland clearance”? Wokester Biden-Harris version of wiping out what they consider “white trash” (aka Appalachia)…and truth be told, these “white trash” are very pilely descended from the victims of Scotland’s “Highland clearance” who became indentured servants in the way to what would become America and got “40 acres and a mule” in Appalachia after payong off indent. And yes, they are likely Trump supporters. But blacks and Cherokee natives were likely also impacted. But of course the media won’t report on the what seems to be partial genocide of whites, esp. poor “white trash.” And folks regardless of race need to realize this: STOP RELYING ON GOVT,! Rely on God, your neighbors and your fellow citizens like the Cajun Navy and the groups mentioned above. Katrina mostly affected blacks, and now it’t the whites turn…and will a man-made tornado in far west Texas where I live wipe out Hispanics? Hmmmm….
Sorry, likely, not pilely…typo.
The ‘perfect storm’: the talmudic commucrats continue to lie, cheat, kill & destroy their enemy, the legitimate U.S. citizenry.
This too shall pass.
@ MM
Clearing the area for Lithium mines seems to be the likely cause. Similar to the Boer Holocaust in the Transvaal region in S. Africa for Rothschilds gold and diamond mines. Appears as though it wasn’t just a flood caused by a Kosher enhanced hurricane, there may have been a dam ‘break’ that facilitated the disaster.
This could turn everybody into a conspiracy theorist. Just imagine if EVERYBODY though they were being lied to. My heart goes out to those who have suffered.
@ Robertvnik
There have been many hurricanes that have hit FLA and gulf coast over the past 30 years. FEMA has always been notoriously corrupt. I first became aware of this issue reading numerous stories relating to the aftermath of Cat 5 Hurricane Andrew that hit just south of Miami in 1992,
FEMA has announced assistance for non-citizens, which means all illegal as well as legal aliens.
Citizens get $750, nothing else whatsoever.
Here’s a video of illegal aliens detailing the freebies Democrats gave them:
– Free hotels
– Free food
– Free toiletries
– Free insurance
This is the reality of Kamala’s America.

Robertvnik,
August 24, 1992 – Hurricane Andrew makes landfall on Homestead, just south of Miami, as a Category 5 hurricane with winds of 165 mph (265 km/h).[64] The winds destroy 25,524 homes and damage 101,241 others in southern Florida, leaving up to one-quarter million people temporarily homeless.
All I recall of possible corruption is that the authorities told everybody to shut all their windows and doors tightly, which caused roofs to blow off as the hurricane passed over because the indoor air pressure could not equalize with the extremely low out door pressure, Contractors must have liked that.
Old timer Floridians know about the air pressure and open windows a crack on the leeward side of the house, then close them while the eye passes and open the windows a crack on the opposite side of the house, now the leeward side. My family has been in FL since 1834. It has always worked for us.
Some excellent commentary by many above, and Yukon nails it. The people who don’t realize by now that the federal cartels are literally at war with you and yours are terminally stupid.
“People are thirsty, some are beginning to starve to death” … Umm, while dehydration can kill quickly, nobody “starves to death” in a 3 or 4 days, so that’s certainly hyperbole. Now, those fat f*cks may FEEL like they’re starving to death because they can’t waddle their fat asses into their usual slop trough for their heaping helpings of lard and bio-engineered shit, but they won’t actually starve to death for weeks.
“They have no cellphones or means of communicating with the outside world.” … Dang, no cellphones to thumb-f*ck! How are they going to post their daily selfie that nobody gives a shit about? Or get their daily dose of imbeciles gyrating on tik toc? Seriously though, they should have already had some sort of plan in place for a backup communications system.
“The federal government, none of them are there. And the county officials, they don’t want us in there…and we were turned away by the police.” …. Uh, here’s a little tip for you, Jack; most cops are control freaks, as are bureaucrats. And the “federal government” not being there to steal what’s left of your shit and slap you around with a big rubber dong is a blessing.
As for the helicopter guys, good for them for trying to help, really. Good thing they didn’t try to fly around New Orleans trying to rescue people after hurricane Katrina in 2005 because the dumb-f*ck niggers were actually shooting at rescue choppers. No kidding.
Whistleblowers expose Biden-Harris hurricane response: withheld aid, waste and more
FEMA has wasted taxpayer funds, misappropriated funds, and left other federal, state, and local responders without deployment orders on the ground.”
Gaetz told Mayorkas that his office had confirmed that “hundreds, if not thousands” of U.S. service members had been deployed by the Department of Defense to the state of North Carolina and have “sat idle, waiting for FEMA.”
