Directory of Federal Prisons

The ***Directory of Federal Prisons*** is the most comprehensive guide to Federal Bureau of Prisons facilities available, written by [**<u>Christopher Zoukis, JD, MBA</u>**](https://federalcriminaldefenseattorney.com/about-us/our-team/christopher-zoukis/) — author, legal scholar, and one of the nation’s most-cited authorities on federal incarceration. Far more than a list of institutions, this 2020 reference (Middle Street Publishing) draws on surveys and interviews with hundreds of current federal prisoners to document the real culture and conditions inside every BOP facility, governmental and private. What sets the *Directory* apart is firsthand validation. Most prison directories reprint publicly available data — security level, population, and location. This book goes further, combining that baseline with on-the-ground intelligence you cannot find anywhere else: the level of violence at each institution, who can safely walk the yard, the state of prison politics and organized gangs, and what prisoners themselves say is good and bad about where they’re held. The *Directory* also demystifies the Bureau of Prisons’ custody and classification system — the scoring that determines security level and placement. Using real BOP case-management forms, readers can calculate an actual security score and understand how Public Safety Factors and Management Variables shape housing, transfer, and placement decisions — knowledge normally held only by seasoned case managers. Each facility profile includes: - Core data: inmate population and sex, security level, and medical and mental-health care levels - Physical location and inmate mailing address - Educational, psychological, vocational, and recreational programs available - Notable incidents reported by the media — arrests, riots, significant fights, escapes, and more - Firsthand reviews from prisoners currently at each facility, covering violence, prison politics, and yard safety No one wants to spend time in federal prison — but if you or a loved one must, reliable information about life on the inside is essential to a safe and productive stay. Building on the reputation of the award-winning, bestselling ***Federal Prison Handbook***, the *Directory of Federal Prisons* helps readers evaluate each institution, assess safety, and understand transfer options so they can make the right placement decisions the first time. It is a core title in the federal prison library of Christopher Zoukis, alongside the *Federal Pris
