Martin Shkreli's request for a minimum-security federal camp is denied -- he's going to prison

He has a history of making violent threats. Perhaps it was only posturing, but in that case it was his own decision to fabricate this persona. Live by the sword and all that.

Maybe if more White Collar Criminals get sentenced to prison instead of the Country Club Camp, we might see less white collar crime.

Fitting that he’ll be incarcerated inside Fort Dicks.

I don’t know why this feels like an appropriate response to this news, but it does:
Wheee!

medium security is whole other level of assholery.

from the bop website, which I shan’t link to because it’s fascist.

Minimum security institutions, also known as Federal Prison Camps (FPCs), have dormitory housing, a relatively low staff-to-inmate ratio, and limited or no perimeter fencing. These institutions are work- and program-oriented.

Low security Federal Correctional Institutions (FCIs) have double-fenced perimeters, mostly dormitory or cubicle housing, and strong work and program components. The staff-to-inmate ratio in these institutions is higher than in minimum security facilities.

Medium security FCIs (and USPs designated to house medium security inmates) have strengthened perimeters (often double fences with electronic detection systems), mostly cell-type housing, a wide variety of work and treatment programs, an even higher staff-to-inmate ratio than low security FCIs, and even greater internal controls.

High security institutions, also known as United States Penitentiaries (USPs), have highly secured perimeters (featuring walls or reinforced fences), multiple- and single-occupant cell housing, the highest staff-to-inmate ratio, and close control of inmate movement.

Administrative facilities are institutions with special missions, such as the detention of pretrial offenders; the treatment of inmates with serious or chronic medical problems; or the containment of extremely dangerous, violent, or escape-prone inmates. Administrative facilities include Metropolitan Correctional Centers (MCCs), Metropolitan Detention Centers (MDCs), Federal Detention Centers (FDCs), Federal Medical Centers (FMCs), the Federal Transfer Center (FTC), the Medical Center for Federal Prisoners (MCFP), and the Administrative-Maximum Security Penitentiary (ADX). Administrative facilities, except the ADX, are capable of holding inmates in all security categories.

He is not going to jail for being a repulsive asshole.
He is not going to jail for jacking up prices of pharmaceuticals.

He is going to jail for stealing money from rich people.

Maybe it’s all part of a bigger plan. After Joe Arpaio and Scooter Libby, wouldn’t it be just as crazy if Trump, hearing of Shkreli’s distress, decided that he should get a pardon? Maybe pardoning Shkreli would finally piss off a decent chunk of his remaining supporters, or at least whatever rich people who had interest in taking Shkreli down in the first place. Or maybe that would be too nuts.

But he is going to jail, and that’s the important thing. Remember: Al Capone was nailed on tax evasion.

Go Grumpy!

Fuck you, you arrogant prick. Remember when you thought you pulling one over on Congress with your smug attitude and acting like your shit don’t stink? Well, fuck you! Now, we need to get all of the others of your ilk behind prison bars starting with the so-called prezinut of da yoonitud states. LOCK THEM UP!
