Death Toll Rises in Southern California Mudslide

LA CONCHITA, CA - JANUARY 12: Members of the Acton, California, prisoner crew work on a bucket brigade in the debris of a mudslide as rescuers continue searching for survivors and recovering the dead January 12, 2005 in La Conchita, California. Twelve homes were destroyed and 16 damaged January 10, 2005 as the mudslide poured over part of the small seaside town of 260 people after the heaviest rainfall in a 15-day period, since records began for the area in 1921. Structures built to protect LaConchita from mudslides after the town was hit by massive landslide in 1995 were wiped out this time. (Photo by David McNew/Getty Images)
