In media

In August 2009, Jeff Smith, then a Missouri state senator, pleaded guilty to two counts of obstruction of justice and resigned his seat. Smith was subsequently sentenced to one year in federal prison and served eight months at FCI Manchester. The business magazine Inc. published an article written by Smith on its website in which Smith described his experience at the prison:

It was my first week in a federal prison, and I was beginning to see that it was far more nuanced than the hotbed of sex, drugs, and violence depicted on television documentaries. It was teeming with ambitious, street-smart men, many who appear to have been very successful drug dealers on the outside, and some of whom possess business instincts as sharp as those of the CEOs who wined and dined me six months before.
