Of course, while he is in Federal prison he is also subject to any new charges that the SEC and DOJ might bring for later unrelated criminal acts or violations of securities laws. And the IRS and California Franchise Tax Board may have some things to keep him busy with also.

So besides his day job mowing lawns, trimming hedges, scrubbing toilets and showers, working in food prep, painting buildings, or whatever he gets assigned to - he will have plenty of legal matters to occupy his limited free time.

So, not a "think tank" by any measure.

But once his BOP record is on the Inmate Locator website and his facility and inmate number are published, we can all send him mail and greeting cards to cheer him up.

I suspect his lawyer asked the judge to request FCI-Dublin (over in the East Bay by Pleasanton), FCI-Lompoc, or FCI-Terminal Island). Unfortunately for him, these facilities are packed and in high demand by requests for transfers by California residents who have already been housed far away (often in Texas or the Midwest) and they have priority on the waitlist. The BOP has no obligation to take notice of the judge's recommendation and will place him at any facility that has available bedspace and that they want to fill. The Federal system is packed and bedspace is at a premium.

He could easily wind up in a real hellhole like FCI-Beaumont, Texas (often locked down for violence and riots - known as "Bloody Beaumont") or a frozen wasteland like FCI-Duluth. The BOP moves inmates to wherever is most convenient for the BOP.

Within about a month or so after he is taken in and processed to his ultimate facility, his record will pop up on the Inmate Locator website and we'll know where he is at and where we can write to him.

He will need cheering up. First-time inmates frequently cry themselves to sleep the first month. It is extremely depressing and you are low-man on the totem pole so you get picked on and given all the sh*t work. Most suicides occur in the first three months - if he makes it past the initial 90 days, he will likely make it for the whole term OK.
