If Hunter Biden goes to prison, it will likely be a short stay at a cushy California facility where he’ll have access to yoga classes, the ocean-breeze, and maybe even a private wing to live alongside his secret service detail, legal experts predict.
Biden, 54, was found guilty Tuesday of lying about his drug addiction to obtain a firearm in 2018.
The felony charges could fetch him up to 25 years in prison, but as they’re his first convictions it’s unlikely he would receive the maximum sentence — if any sentence at all.
“My guess is they would send him to Lompoc,” said Wall Street Prison Consultants director Larry Levine, referring to Federal Corrections Institute Lompoc on the sunny California coast about two hours northwest of Biden’s Malibu home. “It’s a prime location.”
“It’s nice. I was there. It’s near the ocean, it’s got good climate, it’s a park-like setting. It’s laid back,” said Levine, who himself served 10 years in 11 different federal prisons for narcotics and gun charges.
“There’s an airport nearby, the food’s not that bad. The staff isn’t cuckoo.”
Levine told The Post, based on his knowledge of federal sentencing, the president’s son will go to jail but likely not for more than 36 months, which with good behavior would see him out in half that time.
FCI Lompoc is a low security prison about two hours northwest of Malibu, California. Biden may serve time there. bop.gov
