We are family: Tom Manuel and Bernie Madoff prison mates at “Camp Fluffy”

A New York magazine story this week details the life of Bernie Madoff at a federal correctional complex in Butner, North Carolina, nicknamed “Camp Fluffy” by inmates. The title of the story is “Bernie Madoff, Free at Last.” A subhead explains, “In prison he doesn’t have to hide his lack of conscience. In fact, he’s a hero for it.” Madoff’s comments and actions behind bars are told to Steve Fishman by Madoff’s fellow inmates (Madoff refused an interview).

The story portrays Madoff as unrepentant for his Ponzi scheme investment fraud. “Fuck my victims,” the biggest con ever in the history of the world purportedly told a fellow inmate. “I carried them for twenty years, and now I’m doing 150 years.”

It was surprising to see a familiar face in a graphic that accompanied the article, “Weekends (and years and years) at Bernie’s.” It featured a head shoot of Madoff in the middle of the image looking out from behind bars, encircled by the head shots of 11 other prisoners in Madoff’s prison family. They include Carmine Persico (former head of the Colombo crime family), Franklin C. Brown (former vice-chairman of Rite Aid) and our very own Thomas G. Manuel (who is pictured in sunglasses in the lower left of the graphic). The former St. Johns County Commission chairman is serving 21 months in Butner for demanding a $60,000 bribe from a developer.
