Other things that determine a Camp versus a low or minium. Your age, over 50 reduces your points, did you help in your investigation or fight the feds also called acceptance of responsibility. What was the crime you committed and what is your past backround or history regarding crime. Prior to being sentenanced it cannot hurt to ask the Judge for Camp status and even a location.

The Feds go by a sentencing guideline. Levels 1 through 6 crimenal background and offense level, which goes from 1 to 43. If you have to serve more than ten years, you will not start at a camp. Violent background? No camp. Sex crime? No camp. If you ever failed to show up for court the feds look at this as an escape attempt. No camp. But on the bright side....once you get to prison, stay out of trouble and keep yourself busy with programs and you may make camp within the first year to eighteen months.

Others consisted of first time offenders of misdemeanor crimes such as violating probation, minimal possesion of drugs, and conspiracy (involved in a crime with others). With the unfair justice system and guidlines so screwed up these days it's really hard to pin point because it's basically decided by the judges, prosecutors and BOP prison population as to which an inmates will serve in, camp or minimum.
