    The wiki page for the prison is pretty interesting. Quite the rogues gallery of convicts who have had a stay there!

        I started looking up other federal prisons. There is one at Terminal Island in the Port of Los Angeles that had such a reputation as Club Fed that they had to add barbed wire and armed guards in the 80s for PR purposes. Al Capone had a stay there.
