Former Dem Rep Released from Prison 5 Years Early – and Officials Won’t Say Why

Former Dem Rep Released from Prison 5 Years Early – and Officials Won’t Say Why. If no one’s talking then something crooked is probably going on.

Former U.S. Rep. Chaka Fattah Sr. of Pennsylvania was released from a federal prison near Scranton on June 8, more than five years early — and no one is talking about why it happened, according to The Philadelphia Inquirer.

The U.S. Bureau of Prisons and Fattah’s attorney, Sam Silver, were tight-lipped when asked why the Democrat from Philadelphia was sent home well before his sentence was completed, the report said.
