Cooper Back in Circulation After Paying Small Sliver of His Debt to Society
Following yesterday's post which referenced Nathan Cooper's incarceration, a helpful tipster accurately pointed out that Cooper is actually no longer in jail. In fact, less than one year after reporting to prison for what was supposed to be a fifteen month sentence, Cooper is now tethered only to a community release center in St. Louis.
So not only was Cooper's sentence actually far short of the 30 to 37 months called for by the federal sentencing guidelines, but now he's slipped the bonds of prison for a halfway house before serving even the entirety of his already abbreviated sentence. Â

We've posted before about the pass that Cooper has gotten through this entire affair, and this looks to be the final chapter. As a knowledgable observer pointed out, Cooper actually operated for a longer period after the authorities knew he was a criminal and before being charged than he ended up serving in prison in total. A sham, through and through.

Don't Get Too Excited
Cooper is still serving his sentence. He's just in a less secure facility. This is common practice. If he violates his CCR rules he can be sent back to a more secure facility. Spending almost a year in prison on a fifteen month sentence doesn't sound too outrageous for the Feds. Especially for a non-violent crime.
Based on what little we know, I would say he's probably right were he belongs and makes space in a more secure facility for someone who needs to be locked behind bars.
