Steve Bannon’s Prison Sentence Will Be Served In Facility With Violent Offenders: REPORT
SUMMARY
Steve Bannon, former Trump advisor, will serve his four-month sentence for contempt of Congress at Danbury Federal Correctional Institution in Connecticut rather than a minimum-security prison camp. This decision is due to an ongoing criminal case against him in New York. The Danbury facility, which houses violent offenders, has a population of 1,065 inmates, including many sex offenders and drug-related convicts. Bannon's conviction was upheld by the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, and his attorneys are seeking his release pending an appeal, potentially to the Supreme Court. His incarceration coincides with the lead-up to the November election, affecting his advisory role in the campaign.
