So that's when I called the facility.
Yes. I always know who to call at each facility in order to find out what's going on. Now, if the person goes to the hospital due to HIPAA, they're not going to disclose confidential information, but they can say, listen, he was taken to the hospital. He'll be okay. At least I can share that with the spouse or a loved one. The Bureau of Prisons is a black hole. Once you're in it,
There is no information that comes out unless you know how to get it out or navigate that system.
I believe he's two cells over.
So I've had a number of clients, three clients that have been on that floor at one time or another. I also had a number of January 6th clients that were in the facility, although not on that floor. They all told me that he is a very interesting fellow. He was calm. He's taking it as well as can be expected.
Nothing that one would not expect from somebody that's used to the ultimate amount of freedom, luxury, being totally unencumbered to now being told when to go to bed, when to get up, when to shower, when to use a phone, when to use a computer, when to eat, when to stand by your bed and be counted. So it is a deeply demoralizing effect when you're in there.
But I'm told that all the guys on that floor are friendly. They get along. They play board games, chess, checkers, backgammon with each other. They watch TV together. They're very cordial towards each other because when you're in prison, you're the same as the guy next to you, regardless of your wealth or public stature. You all get $360 a month to spend in commissary.
You all get the same outfit to wear. You all get the same set of headphones. You get the same meals, same visiting privileges. So whether you're a billionaire or you're a vagrant on the street that's arrested, You all get the same thing. You're a number. You are an eight-digit number.
When the guy comes around and counts you and asks you to identify yourself, you don't identify yourself as Sean Combs. You identify yourself as your eight-digit BOP number.
No, as far as I know, no. The last time I spoke with anyone, his name came up. He sat on the general population floor. They played, you know, spades, the card game.
It was around holiday time, so I believe he was as depressed as any other guy that was there that couldn't be with their family because obviously you have restricted visits and how long you can be with someone and how many visitors can come in. So it is a depressing time, but he was friendly and congenial as everyone else on that floor. I'm sure he laughed at times.
It's not a funny situation to be in, but they all look around and say, in their opinions, what a mockery of justice it is that they are here. They're all still pre-sentence, pre-trial. So there's a lot of optimism still that they can hold.
Yes, yes. Wow. I mean, I'm sure he's interacting with them, but I haven't asked that recently.
So you're talking about physically, physically a target?
Where he currently is, he's not a target. Where he currently is, he's safe. And that's why he is where he is. If I were consulting him, should he be found guilty, I would be working with his legal team to get him to the best facility based upon his sentence. Remember, because of his charges, which are very serious charges, he stands to serve upwards of 40 years to life in prison.
In that situation, they will only send him to a high security or United States penitentiary. It is bad there. That's the worst of the worst.
So normally what's called under the First Step Act, they try to put somebody within 500 miles of their family. Ideally, in his situation, I would say that should not be a overwhelming concern that they need to get him to the safest facility.
So my comment would be, okay, let's get him to like a Tucson USP or somewhere that, again, he will have the opportunity to live his life, have visits with his family, but be safe. Not pleasant, but safe.
He has to go in there very solid, very respectful of the jury. Let his attorney, you know, Mark Agniflo is an amazing attorney. Let his attorney handle the jury properly and through the voir dire process, figure out who's the best person to hear that case. Unfortunately, 98% of all federal charges, whether through a plea or through a trial, do lead to a conviction.
So overwhelmingly, the odds are stacked against him. I've only had, out of the hundreds and hundreds of people I've helped, only one client, a doctor in Pennsylvania, went to trial and won. So it is an anomaly to actually win. Preparing him is only so much that a consultant can do with serious charges like that. That's why I said most of my clients are white collar offenders.
