Gone Are America’s Cushiest Federal Prisons

It’s always amusing to see how minimum-security prisons get characterized in the media. The days of “country club’’ prisons are long gone, and people should know better by now.

The matter arose again recently when a wayward horse trainer/doper named Jason Servis began serving his four-year sentence at Pensacola Federal Camp in the Panhandle of Florida. Servis pled guilty to doping horses, including, get this, a horse named Maximum Security, who was disqualified for interference after winning the Kentucky Derby in 2019.
