Former Illinois Gov. Ryan is headed to a halfway house
(MCT) — CHICAGO — Former Illinois Gov. George Ryan is scheduled to be transferred from a federal prison camp in Terre Haute, Ind., to a halfway house next week as he nears the end of his 6½-year prison sentence for corruption, according to people close to his family.
It is typical for federal inmates to be moved from prison to a work-release facility about six months or less before their scheduled release. Ryan is set to be freed from custody by July 4, according to the U.S. Bureau of Prisons website.
