The breadth and depth of services begin to show as you read the stories about the prisoners and defendants we have helped.

Here are some quick bullets of clients that have received our services:

The pregnant female defendant contacted us fairly early in the process. She was designated to a Mothers and Infants Together Program. She bonded with her baby for 6 months and returned to a BOP facility, where she then completed RDAP and received time off her sentence and a full 180-day Residential Re-entry Center placement.

A client retained our services because they were scared about federal custody and had no idea what he was facing.  We worked as a team with his attorney to ally his fears. We were able to do some baseline calculations using current sentencing guidelines to ascertain a range of time, security and custody level. The client was prepared, went to Court and received a sentence on the low end of the guideline, and had strong endorsements from the Court for facility designation and program recommendations noted in the J and C.

Defendant did not communicate their entire drug history during the PSI interview. Fortunately, there were documented episodes of substance use prior to the commission of the instant offense through our service, we were able to communicate directly with the RDAP coordinator in a positive manner. The client was admitted into RDAP and received the full benefit.

A defendant who otherwise qualified for RDAP was denied by local Psychology Service staff.  After retaining our services, we were able to carefully and skillfully navigate through the Administrative Remedy process. The client was admitted into RDAP and received full benefits from the program.

A disabled client hired us because he was not receiving appropriate health care.  A careful examination of his situation revealed several gaps. After only 2 rounds of Administrative Remedy correspondence, the client successfully accessed healthcare.

The sex Offender client retained our services. He was able to be designated to a facility that was near home and offered the Sex Offender Management Program. He completed and received 180 days of RRC placement. Interestingly he qualified for Home Confinement after being in the RRC for several weeks.

The disabled client retained us near the end of his sentence. He was able to apply for and be admitted into immediate Home Confinement. Our services prepared his family on how to qualify and pass home inspections from both USPO and BOP contract staff.

Assisted numerous clients with BP 8, 9, 10, and 11 correspondence.

The family of a mentally ill defendant retained our services. Assisted the defendant’s counsel on competence 4241 and competence restoration 4241d proceedings. Some missteps here could have resulted in a way longer sentence for the client.

The client held under a 3552 evaluation was provided services that connected them with a timely sentencing and favorable designation to a BOP facility.

The sex Offender client retained our services. After retaining our services, we were able to complete a risk assessment with multiple measures. AUSA had been asking for 7 years. After the testimony, this individual received a sentence of 366 days (the non-contact offense was downloader only). After completing treatment with the USPO contract provider, the client will be able to be removed from the Public Sex Offender Registry in his state per evaluation.

RDAP graduate nearly failed from his early release from the program. After retaining our services and application of our advice, the client successfully completed Transitional Services and received full benefit from the early release.

Several clients through our services have been placed in Home Detention or Electronic Monitoring. We coordinated this through USPO and the client was able to remain at home, reporting to a PO once a week. (Not available in all states or jurisdictions)

Sex Offenders retained our help after being bullied in FCI. Administrative contacts were strategic and resulted in 1) the safety of the client and 2) placement into Sex Offender Treatment which we were able to assist in a program transfer.

These are just some of the many types of situations we can assist clients, families, and their attorneys.

Classification, Sentencing, Designations, and Program Case Studies

While there are many competent Federal Prison Consultants out there, hiring former BOP officials/consultants with prior inside expertise in BOP policies and procedures is advantageous. Watch out for guarantees of this or that. We would never guarantee anything. After all, you’re dealing with the Federal System and every case is different. Through patience, diligence, and following the correct policies and procedures, positive results can happen.

The good news is, most BOP staff abide by the policies set forth. Ironically, people think hiring a consultant is a shortcut.  It is because many attorneys, defendants, and other experts don’t understand HOW the BOP operates. Some attorneys are so focused on getting through the case, they forget the long journey forward simply because it’s not their job unless they do post-conviction work.  Realize that the courts are the Judicial Branch.  The BOP is in the Executive Branch.  It is a full-on law enforcement entity.

Believe it or not, the BOP, by and large, strives to do the best job it can. For sure, not all staff follow policy in a timely manner, otherwise, I would not have this business.

Additionally, we are the only Federal Prison Consultants versed in Designating clients, Sex Offender Treatment, assessment and designation of this growing population of the BOP.  Many ex-con prison consultants are silent on the sex offender.  That’s a shame, as this is going to be about one-fourth of the BOP population soon.  These offenders/defendants need help, and not many consultants are there to assist them.
