What do they do with Lombardo in the supermax at 90 years old? Surely they don’t have a 90 year old on 23 hours a day lockdown? Doesn’t seem physically possible if you’ve had a 90 year old in your family....they can barely even reach for the tv remote.
Who knows? The prison system in America is a joke. I'm not really in favor of treating these guys with kid gloves but the Supermax should really be reserved for the worst of the worst. Foreign and domestic terrorists, cartel bosses/drug lords, guys with a history of violence against guards or other inmates, etc. I wouldn't be surprised if they have Lombardo and Marcello both locked up there to give a message to what's left of the Outfit: this is where you'll end up.
Could it be because of the Outfit trying to get to Nick Calabrese before the Family Secrets indictments through US Marshall Ambrose, with Marcello and Lombardo thought to be members of the Outfit administration?
I just checked and Lombardo had "Special Administrative Measures (SAMs)" concerning his imprisonment; namely that he is required to live in "solitary confinement with restricted phone access, and no access to the media, books, or worship services." SAMs were created by the Department of Justice which
"authorized the Bureau of Prisons (BOP), at the direction of the
Attorney General, to impose special administrative measures
with respect to specified inmates, based on information
provided by senior intelligence or law enforcement
officials,…where the Attorney General has certified that
reasonable suspicion exists that an inmate may use
communications with attorneys (or agents traditionally covered
by the attorney-client privilege) to further or facilitate acts of
violence and/or terrorisms…"
Regarding Lombardo specifically, the Attorney General stated:
"Based upon information provided to me of Lombardo’s proclivity for
violence, I find that there is substantial risk that his communications or
contacts with persons could result in death or serious bodily injury to
person, or substantial damage to property that would entail the risk of
serious bodily injury to persons. Therefore, I am requesting that you,
pursuant to 28 C.F.R. Section 501.3, implement SAM to restrict
Lombardo’s access to the mail, the media, the telephone and visitors.
Implementation oft the SAM will commence immediately upon notice to
the inmate, and the SAM will be in effect for one year from the date of
my approval, subject to my further direction."
Now, this is only regarding the SAMs, as he has presumably fulfilled his one year, meaning he now has access to media, books, etc., although all prisoners at Admax, regardless of their SAMs, is in solitary confinement.
