全美“顶流”Luigi,即使入狱了也是备受瞩目。监狱生活究竟如何?当年看美剧越狱积累的“纯狱风”词汇压箱底这么多年终于能用上了。让我们一起看看今天这篇英文文章。
Luigi Mangione, accused of the high-profile murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, is currently detained in the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) Brooklyn, famous for its harsh conditions. Sources close to the situation have provided a glimpse into Mangione's life behind bars.
Mangione is housed in "administrative segregation," a unit designated for inmates requiring extra security measures. This status is due to the high-profile nature of his alleged crime, which makes him a potential target among the general inmate population.
Sources confirm that Mangione is confined to a single cell but has proximity to other inmates, allowing for occasional conversation. Unlike general population units, this segregation block lacks television access, leaving inmates with limited activities.
Mangione is allowed one hour per day in a recreational pen to exercise uncuffed. The pen sometimes includes a basketball or stationary bike, depending on the designated cage.
A source close to Mangione revealed that he was "shocked and really choked up" when he saw the support he had received which gave him confidence and reassurance that he would be okay.
The source told us that Mangione was used to adulation from men and women but "not to this level".
路易吉·曼吉奥内被指控谋s联合健康保险公司首席执行官布莱恩·汤普森,他目前被关押在布鲁克林大都会拘留中心,该中心以条件恶劣而闻名。知情人士让我们得以一窥曼吉奥内在狱中的生活。
曼吉奥内被安置在“行政隔离”区域中,这是专门为需要额外安全措施的囚犯设置的。这种情况是由于他所涉案件的高调性质,使他成为普通囚犯群体的潜在目标。
消息来源证实,曼吉奥内被关在单间牢房里,但离其他囚犯很近,偶尔可以交谈。与普通牢房不同,这个隔离区没有电视,囚犯活动比较有限。
曼吉奥内每天有一个小时的锻炼时间,可以在一个休闲围栏里解开手铐进行活动。围栏里有时会有篮球或固定式自行车,这取决于指定的区域。
一位与曼吉奥内关系密切的消息人士透露,当他得知人们对自己的支持时,他十分震惊,甚至都哽咽了。这些给予了他信心和安慰,让他相信自己会没事的。
消息人士告诉我们,曼吉奥内已经习惯了来自男人和女人的赞美,但“没有达到过这种程度”。
