The Federal Correctional Institution, Edgefield (FCI Edgefield) is a medium-security United States federal prison for male inmates in South Carolina. It is operated by the Federal Bureau of Prisons, a division of the United States Department of Justice. The facility also has an adjacent satellite prison camp for minimum-security male offenders which houses between 500 and 549 inmates. The satellite prison camp also has the Residential Drug and Alcohol Program which is part of the prison reform and rehabilitation program for those that are addicted to drugs and alcohol. FCI Edgefield is located near the South Carolina-Georgia border, approximately 25 miles north of Augusta, Georgia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bop.gov/locations/institutions/edg/index.jsp )〕 ==Notable incidents== In 2002, a correction officer assigned to FCI Edgefield, whom the Bureau of Prisons did not identify, pleaded guilty and was sentenced on Georgia state charges to three years' incarceration followed by seven years' supervised release for possession with the intent to distribute marijuana. A joint investigation by the Department of Justice Inspector General's Office and the Richmond County Sheriff's Office revealed that the officer took over $9,000 in bribes in exchange for receiving packages containing marijuana and passing them on to inmates. On May 20, 2010, the US Attorney's Office in Columbia, South Carolina announced that two former correctional officers at FCI Edgefield, Gregory Conyers and Antonio Heath, had been indicted for accepting bribes from inmate Boyce Tisdale in exchange for smuggling contraband into the facility. Conyers and Heath subsequently pleaded guilty and were sentenced to prison. Tisdale was transferred to the Federal Correctional Complex, Butner in North Carolina and is scheduled for release in 2023. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Federal Correctional Institution, Edgefield」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
