Manafort in “Almost Prison”
To add insult to injury, Paul Manafort has been sent to a federal prison described as a boy’s dormitory. Cumberland is in Maryland. It ain’t hell.
One top D.C. defense attorney said his clients describe Cumberland as a “boys dormitory” with food that’s “nothing to write home about.” It’s got a commissary (where canned tuna — which, oddly, is used as a kind of currency in the camp — is sold) and a bare-bones fitness facility. The biggest perk, though, is that prisoners tend to be on their best behavior for fear of being sent somewhere rougher. “Nothing bad happens to you there,” said the attorney.
If you want to send him some money so he can buy cappuccino, be sure to give a little extra so he can get a candy bar.
But will he get the Jack Abramoff Memorial bunk?
If all these white collar criminals got to spend some time in a Supermax, there’d be a lot less criminal activity by them
1I’m sure the guys in a Supermax would love to “friend” a nice, tender, white, greedy lawyer.
2Yes, Papa! Especially a friend of the Golden Gibbon.
3What can we get him that will exacerbate the gout? I’ll start a GoFundMe.
4A Supermax would be a waste of money. Instead, a medium security prison like Fort Leavenworth would do very nicely.
5Yeah, well the downside to country club imprisonment is that it makes it a lot easier for the polonium pellet guys to get at you. I suspect that’s a thought which smolders in the back of Manafort’s mind.
6I wanna send a swift farewell from this mortal coil.
