Steve Bannon to Serve Prison Term at Low-Security Facility in Connecticut
The former Trump adviser will not be housed in a minimum-security 'Club Fed' due to pending criminal charges in New York.
- Bannon is set to report to the Federal Correctional Institution in Danbury, Connecticut on July 1.
- The low-security prison can house violent offenders, unlike the 'Club Fed' facility Bannon's lawyers had hoped for.
- Bannon's upcoming trial in New York for defrauding donors may result in his transfer to Rikers Island.
- Legal experts believe Bannon's appeal to the Supreme Court to overturn his conviction is unlikely to succeed.
- Bannon's sentence stems from his conviction for contempt of Congress after defying a subpoena from the January 6 committee.
