미국은 엄벌주의 국가이기 때문에 중범죄자들은 모든 감옥들이 아주 엄격하게 관리되고 있거나 아주 개판 5분전이라 밥도 개밥을 주고 들어가는 순간 찔릴 수 있는 ㅈ되는 곳으로 생각하겠지만

사실 그런 감옥들은 중범죄자인데 돈 없고 빽 없는 놈들이나 가는 곳임

중범죄를 저지르고도 돈과 빽이 있으면 저위험 교도소로 가게 되는데 사실상 휴가라 할 정도임

보안도 최저 수준이라 험악하게 생긴 간수들의 엄격한 통제도 없고 밥도 아주 잘나옴

미국에선 이런 곳을 럭셔리 프리즌이라고 부르는데

이곳의 죄수들은 하루 종일 테니스를 치거나 케이블 TV로 각종 재밌는 방송들을 보고

심지어는 인터넷이 연결된 컴퓨터도 이용 가능해서 중범죄를 저지른 범죄자들에게 호사가 말이 되냐는 논란은 계속 있었음

심지어 요즘엔 일부 일반적인 감옥에서 죄수들이 이용 가능한 유료 옵션이 존재하는데

1일 25달러부터 가장 비싼 방은 251 달러를 내고 더 좋은 옵션의 방으로 들어가는 것이 가능한 곳도 있음

돈만 낸다면 독방에서 남들 종교 방송 볼 때 혼자 케이블 TV로 예능을 보면서

개인 냉장고에서 음료수와 과자를 꺼내 까먹으면서 편하게 지낼 수 있음

엄벌주의라고 생각한 미국에서 중범죄를 저질러서 감옥 가더라도

빽 혹은 돈 하나라도 있으면 편하게 살 수 있음

2000년대 들어서서 미국 교도소들이 민영화로 더욱 급격하게 바뀌고 있는 추세라

같은 교도소 내에서도 유로 옵션에 따라 죄수의 대우가 극명하게 갈림

Todd Chrisley serving his time in one of America’s cushiest prisons

PRISONS

Reality TV star Todd Chrisley reported to federal prison on Tuesday to begin his 12-year sentence — and he couldn’t have asked for a better place to serve.

FPC Pensacola, a minimum-security facility in Pensacola, Florida, has been labeled as one of the “cushiest” in America.

The facility, which opened in 1988, is usually reserved for white-collar crime that includes wire fraud, mail fraud and healthcare fraud.

Prominent defense attorney, Allan Ellis, described the prison as a “pretty laid-back experience,” and idles more along the lines of a “camp.”

Former US Rep. Chris Collins, who served New York’s 27th congressional district from 2013 until his resignation in 2019, was sentenced to 26 months there for insider trading and making false statements to the FBI, which he started on Oct. 13, 2020. (Collins received a pardon from Donald Trump on Dec. 22, 2020, in the last month of his presidency.)

“If I had to do time, that’s one of the places I’d want to be designated to,” Ellis, who annually publishes a “Federal Prison Guidebook,” told Buffalo News of Collins being sentenced there. “These federal prison camps are much better to be at than other federal prisons.”

Trump ally and former US Rep. Chris Collins was prosecuted for insider trading.

Perks of the prison include inmates getting to play racquetball, volleyball and horseshoes. They can even gather in the prison theater for movie night.

“It has every dumbbell and barbell that you could imagine,” Tim Donaghy, a former NBA referee who pleaded guilty to two gambling-related charges, added — also describing the prison as “clean and safe.”

Many of the inmates are either white-collar criminals or drug offenders serving the tail end of long sentences after getting moved to Pensacola for good behavior.

FPC Pensacola also offers educational opportunities, vocational training and communal television rooms for inmates.

“I don’t get why you use tax dollars to do that, to pay all those guards, pay all those doctors and nurses and all those people that are there, when you really can just put these people on house arrest,” Donaghy said.

Meanwhile, a 2016 blog post from a former prison inmate detailed his time at the prison as “accommodating.”

Kenneth Flaska, a former attorney, spent more than 5 years at the facility for bank fraud.

He detailed his mornings — which consisted of making coffee, watching CNN, reading, playing a Sudoku puzzle and being able to talk to his wife daily. He was also able to check his email regularly and work out.

Meals consisted of hot dogs, and pasta with red sauce and garlic bread, which Flaska referred to as “not bad by prison standards.”

Flaska added that lights are on at 4:45 to accommodate those who work at the Eglin Air Force Base — a bus picks them up where they will then do landscaping or other chores.

What do you think? Post a comment.

Chrisley, of “Chrisley Knows Best,” was found guilty, along with his wife, Julie, on federal charges of bank fraud and tax evasion, and submitting false documents to banks to take out loans and fund their lavish lifestyle.

Meanwhile, Julie is serving a 7-year prison sentence at FMC Lexington, Kentucky, which is described as an “administrative security federal medical center with an adjacent minimum security satellite camp.”

America's most luxurious jail? California prison is charging inmates $155 to upgrade to fancy wing with widescreen TV and 'quiet surroundings'

  • Upgrades include widescreen HDTV and game tables
  • The beds, food and bathrooms are the same
  • Inmates can serve no more than three consecutive days at a time

By RYAN GORMAN

PUBLISHED: 21:57 BST, 27 July 2013 | UPDATED: 22:17 BST, 27 July 2013




California prisoners in one town are now able to upgrade their digs if they’ve got deep enough pockets.

Fremont, CA recently began charging inmates $155 a night to stay in a previously unused jail. The program is pay-as-they-go and provides a few perks that might be worth the cost to a few discerning inmates.

It’s a win-win for both prisoners and the cash-strapped town.

Oh you fancy huh?: Inmates paying for the upgrades get widescreen HDTVs


Prior to the innovative program, the jail had been unused since being built in 2000, according to reports.

'You do get cable TV, but you don’t get a warm cookie on your bed,' Lieutenant Mark Devine, of the Fremont Police Department told KPIX.

TRENDING


Not quite a hotel, but better than the average prison, the nightly rate gives prisoners widescreen HDTV and gaming tables – cells, beds, bathrooms and showers are all standard issue though, according to the station. The city is not yet offering suites for an even higher price.

The added cost doesn’t include room service, rather the food and other treatment are the same as at any other jail.

Not that much better: Inmates still share cells, bathrooms and showers


‘They get the same treatment as the general population – same food, same bed, same phone call and TV rights,’ a Fremont Police spokesperson told ABC News.

Currently with only 54 beds, the $10million facility can house up to 96 inmates, according to the city. Inmates are split into pods that can hold up to eight inmates at once.

The program is open only to inmates convicted of misdemeanors who receive prior approval from a judge. Approval is contingent on passing a health screening, which includes a TB test, and a background check to ensure a non-violent past, according to ABC News.

Never expected to be filled to capacity, officials believe the main selling point for the added cost is the peace and quiet that comes with taking a break from the general population.

Not your average jail: Inmates can transfer to Fremont Jail from anywhere in the state, provided they can afford the fancy new digs


‘The only other thing you’re really paying for is the smallness and the quietness of the facility,’ Lieutenant Devine told KPIX.

That peace and quiet is expected to be a windfall for a city struggling to make ends meet. If just 16 inmates stay in the upgraded cells for only two days a week, Fremont would turn a tidy $244,000 profit annually.

‘We are the trustees of a large facility that was paid for with taxpayer money. Now we need to be good stewards of that investment and maximize its use and efficiency for the taxpayers,’ Lieutenant Devine told KPIX.

Similar programs are offered in jails in California in Anaheim, Beverly Hills and Roseville,

In Pictures: America's 10 Cushiest Prisons

Spending time in federal prison feels like anything but a vacation at "Club Fed," according to people who've had the dubious distinction of experiencing extended says. Still, some federal facilities are distinctly less unpleasant than others. As the latest market crash paves the way for a new generation of white-collar fraudsters, we present the nation's 10 cushiest prisons. Minimum-security prison camps, which fill the top spots on our list, are the facilities that have garnered the Club Fed moniker. But cons need a sentence of less than 10 years to even have a chance of getting in one. Nevertheless, scammers with far longer sentences, like Bernard Madoff, can still improve their lot by getting assigned to a facility with no high-security inmates, a clutch location and a relative abundance of amenities like e-mail access or a pleasant outdoor place to visit with loved ones. Reports say Madoff is headed for the Federal Correctional Complex at Butner, N.C.--No. 9 on our list.

Federal Prison Camp at Alderson, W.Va.

Nestled in the foothills of the scenic Allegheny Mountains, this women-only camp was home to Martha Stewart during her time as a federal inmate. Its prisoners enjoy a mild climate, access to e-mail, a chance to reduce their sentence via on-site rehab and occupational programs like horticulture and cosmetology. Upscale visitors can find suitable local lodging at the Greenbrier, the historic luxury resort less than an hour up the road.

Federal Prison Camp at Pensacola, Fla.

If you've got to do time, you may as well do it off the Gulf of Mexico. Pensacola's prisoners also tend to have better jobs and recreational choices due to the proximity of a large naval base. Getting there is a snap; Pensacola has its own airport. The camp was formerly home to Mark Whitacre, the executive-cum-convict played by Matt Damon in the upcoming movie The Informant!

Federal Prison Camp at Montgomery, Ala.

Another camp tied to a military facility, FPC Montgomery is located on the Maxwell Air Force Base. E-mail and on-site substance abuse treatment are available, as is a wide variety of occupational programs: Montgomery's prisoners can, among other pursuits, study to become dog trainers or earn commercial driver's licenses.

Federal Prison Camp at Yankton, S.D.

In southeastern South Dakota, near the Nebraska border. The winters are tough, and the nearest city of any size is at least an hour away, but Yankton is a standalone minimum-security facility with a staff that's not too tough on prisoners. White-collar cons can take classes in accounting, business administration and business management.

Federal Correctional Institution at Sheridan, Ore.

Houses medium-security inmates at a main facility and has a minimum-security satellite camp. Staff reportedly tends to be pleasant. The facility is less than 1.5 hours from Portland. Notable former inmate: rap impresario Marion "Suge" Knight.

Federal Correctional Institution at Memphis, Tenn.

The only prison in our top 10 located in a major city. Still no e-mail for inmates: The Bureau of Prisons says this facility won't receive such service until next April. A humid climate is also a drawback.

Federal Correctional Institution at Dublin, Calif.

One of two women's facilities on our list. There are few occupational programs to choose from, and e-mail won't arrive until this fall at the earliest, but proximity to the Bay Area means gorgeous weather and easy travel options for visitors. The prison was formerly home to Heidi Fleiss, the "Hollywood Madam." Personal safety may be an issue. FCI Dublin is currently "in urgent need" of guards, according to the BOP.

Federal Correctional Institution at Ashland, Ky.

Located in the northeastern corner of Kentucky, FCI Ashland has a history of housing high-profile inmates. Mystery writer Dashiell Hammett spent several months here in the early 1950s after being found in contempt of court for refusing to testify about alleged Communist activities. More recently it's been home to plaintiff super-lawyer Richard "Dickie" Scruggs of Mississippi, who won billions of dollars from the tobacco industry in the 1990s only to be sentenced to prison last year for bribing a judge. Scruggs had asked to be sent to FPC Pensacola.
