New York, where he'll now be staying in a luxurious prison known as the Oneida Correctional Facility. The New York State Department of Correctional Services tells us Plaxico was moved from Ulster Correctional Facility in Napanoch, NY this morning and taken to his new permanent home at Oneida, which is in Rome, New York. We're told Plaxico -- who was sentenced to two years in prison last week -- will be separated from the general population and staying in the long-term protective custody unit. Source: TMZ.com
This is just the beginning. He is not housed in a US Government quasi golf course just yet. That may come down the road later in his sentence. He has to go through due process. His special treatment may be solitare.
To be protected from himself? :icon_cheesygrin: This just goes to show once again that "white collar" crime is different from peasant crime.
The ridicolous thing is, that he has to do some time in jail for a minor infringement. did he had some leagal trouble before?
These strict/inflexible laws are usually derived from the public outrage at real criminals getting off too light & going right back to business. Then you have what happens here...overkill.
