One guard told me that the inmates who deliver the food to PC tend to do unspeakable “stuff” to that food en route, knowing where it’s going. By the time meals are shuttled to their unit, they are at best lukewarm. That’s almost a given.īut there are downsides to PC housing. He’ll request protective custody and get it if he hasn’t already. I can’t imagine a man of Weisselberg’s age or social standing landing in general population. Prisoners held in protective custody on Rikers are afforded their own single cells, complete with stainless steel toilets they can use privately. Clearly, modesty was not the order of the day!įortunately for Allen, he won’t have to suffer any of those humiliations. There, I was locked into 60 square feet along with another inmate for 10 hours a day, with just a small sink and a toilet located in the middle of the cell with which to do our business. It may sound grim, but I actually preferred that arrangement on Rikers to my previous accommodations at MCC federal prison. Inmates who enter general population are housed in a dormitory-style environment with 60 to 80 beds rows and rows of urinals and dumpers five beat-up shower heads with no partitions and long sinks with several faucets.


Taylor Center (EMTC, where most sentenced inmates end up). Once the judge sentences Weisselberg, he’ll likely be escorted to the Eric M. I’m a 72-year-old man who served most of 2019 at three different institutions for the crime of tax fraud. The public hears so many scary stories that it can be hard to imagine surviving internment in what might possibly be the country’s most infamous jail. In the wake of Allen Weisselberg’s plea deal and impending designation to serve his time behind bars on Rikers Island, people might be curious as to what it’s really like to be jailed at Rikers - especially for a geriatric white-collar offender.
