Blagojevich unlikely to land in ‘Club Fed’

The Chicago Sun-Times reports:
Most people think corrupt politicians get to spend their prison time in a cushy confines, referring to it as “Club Fed.”

But because of Rod Blagojevich’s lengthy sentence prison sentence of 14 years, it’s highly unlikely he will initially qualify for a prison camp – the most relaxed security facility available in the federal system.

Blagojevich will likely end up in a low-security prison, said Jeffrey Steinback, known as a sentencing expert.

Some possibilities, he said, are in Milan, Michigan; Sandstone, Minnesota, and Englewood, Colorado. None are in the state.
