Andy Fastow Is Out of Prison
Technically! He’ll be in a halfway house until later this year (BOP says December 17) but getting out of the big house has to feel good.
However, Drew won’t be able to apply for a position at one of those Chinese companies who are losing CFOs left and right. He still has to get reacquainted with society and whatnot:
“It’s a bridge, if you will, a transition period,” said bureau spokesman Edmond Ross. The purpose of the halfway house is for prisoners to reestablish family ties and adjust to society outside of prison, he said. Prisoners are allowed to leave the facility to go to their jobs, but their movements are still controlled. “They cannot come and go as they please,” said Ross. “Their lives are restricted to the rules of the halfway house.”
First things first, Andy – Twitter account. Oh, and maybe subscribe to our enewsletter.
