I ran across the statement "In 1864, the Confederate prison at Andersonville, Georgia was flooded with bounty jumpers. The presence of these hardened villains substantially worsened the already miserable living conditions endured by the camp's many sick and weakened prisoners." This was in the book "The Enemy Within: Fears of Corruption in the Civil War North" By Michael Thomas Smith, p. 141.

Were southern bounty jumpers imprisoned with Union POWs at Andersonville?
