9. Yeah .... that's kinda what I was wondering
The NYC jail system is a little frightening.

Which, in this case, is a good thing.

I hope the all night yelling and screaming scares him such that he wets his pants ........ every fucking night he is there.

7. He will likely land in a low-security federal prison
No Club Fed likely for Madoff
Ponzi swindler will likely land in a low-security federal prison or, if he's lucky, a less stringent prison camp.

Madoff may ask the court to be placed in a prison of his choosing and the court can then forward this request to the federal Bureau of Prisons.

The bureau "ultimately decides where the inmate ," said bureau spokeswoman Felicia Ponce. "We take into consideration judicial recommendations, but they're not binding."

Despite his white-collar status and non-violent history, Madoff won't be whiling away his days in some cushy "Club Fed" type of prison.

Ponce said the bureau weighs the "seriousness of the offense, the expected length of incarceration, any history of escapes and violence" as well as the age of the inmate and "security needs." The bureau tries to incarcerate inmates within 500 miles of their homes, she said.

Madoff's lawyer, Sorkin, wouldn't provide any details of his client's preferences. "There are many different facilities in many different places," he said.

12. the federal Bureau of Prisons tries to incarcerate inmates within 500 miles of their homes
except, of course, in the case of Don Sieglman.
Remember the outcry when it was discovered they had moved him in the middle of night haflway across the country?

11. He's in the Metropolitan Correctional Institution (MCI)
These are usually short term hold/evaluation facilities in major cities, or for misdemeanor sentences. In June he will likely be transferred to a mininum security facility.
