By the way, who pays the consulting fee? I am sure it is not for free.
Ping!
Is that so? LOL.

Supermax too full for Guantanamo detainees

Should Guantanamo detainees be transferred to Supermax in Florence? denverpost.com (Associated Press file photo )Moving any large number of terror detainees from Guantanamo Bay to Colorado's Supermax would require either shuffling current residents out of the Florence prison or expanding its capacity and resolving a long-running battle over adequate prison staffing.
As President Barack Obama and congressional leaders point toward the Colorado federal prison as a possible new home for some of the detainees, one big problem is the bed-space crunch.
Supermax’s approximately 480 concrete cells already are jammed with the likes of Oklahoma City bombing co-conspirator Terry Nichols, Atlanta Olympics bomber Eric Rudolph and other notorious domestic criminals. There also are 33 international terrorists, including Sept. 11 conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui, 1993 World Trade Center bombing mastermind Ramzi Yousef and failed airline shoe bomber Richard Reid.
Only one bed was not filled Thursday at Supermax, U.S. Bureau of Prisons spokeswoman Tracy Billingsley said.
btw, why does he still have money to pay someone
Am I the first person ever to hear the term “prison consultant?”
sheesh...
Hoelter worked on the IRS case with Willie Nelson and that’s when Willie made the album “”IRS tapes or something what ever it was called.
He also was influential in the Leona Helmsley case,too.
Nothing much is achieved by putting Madoff in Supermax except scaring the crap out of him for the rest of his unnatural life and putting his life in constant peril from other prisoners.
That’s not too useful.
IMO he would be better in a medium security prison with minimal creature comforts and a job making license plates. He can’t dig ditches at his age and it would be silly to make him try. But he certainly can stamp license plates, one after the other after the other, day in, day out, week after week, month after year, for the rest of his life.
That would be punishment that fits the crime.

Since when do convicts get to pick the prison they go to?
While he desrves his harsh sentance, let’s not waste space at the “supermax” on a 70 year old that poses no threat. I believe Ken Lay (Enron) is doing his time at the federal prison in Waseca, MN
No this one is NOT going to happen.
Bernard Madoff is not a danger to guards, fellow inmates or prison staff.
He's a danger to puffed up rich liberals who think they deserve a better "deal" than the rest of us get. And there aren't many of them in a prison ( well, they're all liberals in prison - but not the "rich" ones...)

On the plus side, the chances of him running into anyone who's money he swindled is probably nil.
