Black Hills Nat'l Forest, South Dakota

The claim: north of Edgemont, southwest part of state. WWII internment camp being renovated.

What it really is: No World War 2 internment camp, and I know this for a fact because there were never any World War 2 internment camps at all in the state of South Dakota (nor any POW camps).

Yankton, South Dakota

The claim: Federal prison camp

What it really is: Yes, there is a federal prison camp there. It's minimum security and was named one of the 10 cushiest prisons in America in 2009 by Forbes.
