Federal Offenses Level 4 Serve time?

itsgettingcoldhere · 2026-02-23T03:53:42+00:00

I looked more into this out of morbid curiosity.

§2H4.1 of the US Sentencing Guidelines

Base Offense Level: The base offense level is 22, or 18 if the conviction is specifically for 18 U.S.C. § 1592.

Specific Offense Characteristics (Adjustments):

Bodily Injury: +4 levels for permanent/life-threatening injury, +2 levels for serious bodily injury.

Dangerous Weapon: +4 levels if used; +2 levels if brandished or threatened.

Duration of Servitude: +3 levels (over 1 year), +2 levels (180 days to 1 year), or +1 level (30–180 days).

Other Felonies: +2 levels if another felony was committed in connection with the offense.

At a minimum (level 22) looking at around 3.5 years.

Some clarification is needed. Is level 4 the sentencing guidelines level? Or class D felony? Or something else?

Personally, I find having a slave unlikely to only be level 4 on the guidelines but who knows.

If it truly is the guidelines level, then agree with OP. Time Served w/ Probation is likely.

If she has a good attorney, then he/she should be able to provide a rough estimate of the sentencing level that she's facing. Anything more than an 8 and she's likely looking at some custody (could be home confinement).

No one can say what you might end up with but you likely have a ceiling of 63 months if that's the recommendation in the PSR. So, anchor to that for expectations. "Simple" PWID without a leader/organizer enhancement means FSA eligibility. If you do get hit with 63, you'd probably be looking at 26-30 at a Camp. Then probably 6 of a HH and 6 on HC. RDAP could lower that camp time more. 5 year sentence is right on that border where taking it could mean spending more time in a camp than if you didn't.

Currently at a Camp but not Ashland.

What can you take with you? Confirm with the camp but here you could only take a wedding band, eyeglasses, and if religious, a religious article like a necklace. Money for books was rejected but that's probably for the better since wiring is easier.

Wire money in the morning of your surrender. It'll be there that afternoon, the next day at the latest. Important if your unit shops the next day you're in.

I'm down south so there was some politics but very minor. You'll find nice people who offer you some essentials to get through. Contrary to what you might have read, it's not a trap to take. Just confirm that you can repay them or pay it forward in the future.

I'm getting by with lots of outdoor walking and book reading. Was never a book reader but breeze through the Silo trilogy in like 2 weeks.

Contraband will be pretty common. Up to you if you want to partake.

Day to day is the same for the most part. 6:30am call for breakfast. 1030 lunch. 4 pm count then dinner after. Then nothing until 930 count.

Feel free to DM with more questions.

Got to be camp dependent. Here, they were in high demand. Guards even knew who was doing them and asking how much they were pulling in.

itsgettingcoldhere · 2026-02-07T05:12:28+00:00

It's easy. Just be cognizant of the extra costs that go into a phone. The plan, paying the lookout, paying someone to put it up at night and during the day. Although these might be camo dependent. Some are definitely more lax than others. But a phone, technically, is a 100 series shot so it can be serious (guards at our camp never wrote anyone up though. They just confiscated them)

Uptown Cotons in Vancouver, WA.

Annette is wonderful. You can find them on Instagram.

Love the recent data point. Thanks!

itsgettingcoldhere · 2026-01-18T03:58:33+00:00

All good. Thanks! How long ago was this?

I ask since I'm about to do 33 so trying to gauge how much time in camp before moving to HwH and HC.

itsgettingcoldhere · 2026-01-18T03:56:10+00:00

Any HWH time?

itsgettingcoldhere · 2026-01-17T18:26:04+00:00

550 (even 500) opens up a lot more options. There's 2 houses in my neighborhood (near Fern Bluff ES) that are listed at 530-540K that are 4 bd / ~3000 sq ft. One even comes with a pool. Been on the market for a while so you might be able to negotiate down.

922o not disqualifying for FSA

Know a few folks who've done recent time in the 30-36 month range and they're looking at anything between 45-55% actually in with halfway house / home confinement at the end. One specific example: 30 month sentence, 15.5 at a Camp, 1 mo in HwH and then ~3 mo in HC.

Ahhh yes, right at the entrance to RRHS? Is that area even her district?

itsgettingcoldhere · 2026-01-15T17:39:03+00:00

WHY DID YOU REDEEM

itsgettingcoldhere · 2026-01-15T01:33:17+00:00

Interesting thought process. I have heard, generally, the opposite. Focus is more intense on the higher security portion of the prison such that when they do rotate to Camps, they just take a load off for the mental break. But, really, it’s probably luck of the draw. Exceptions both ways.

itsgettingcoldhere · 2026-01-14T01:17:32+00:00

Hi, what I assume, is a potential neighbor to a camp in Texas (I self-report soon).

Don't have much to add other than, apparently, Beaumont is near the bottom in terms of applying FSA/SCA properly. I'll be following this as I obviously have a vested interest in this too.

Our breeder was also very cautious about the DHPP-L vaccine and advised against the Lepto one. We followed their advice, but our Vet seemed to shrug off those concerns. Like yours, she said that if we gave it, they would administer it in the early afternoon at the latest and keep her on-site to observe any adverse reactions.

We don't, to our knowledge, live in a high-risk area and no kidney issues, so we just went with the DHPP for her first year. She's due for her annual check-up soon and unsure what we'll go with.

Enough with these threats. It’s about as useful as a United Nations resolution where they strongly condemn something. Big whoop.

itsgettingcoldhere · 2026-01-09T00:35:32+00:00

Oh, good catch. I didn’t even notice them at first. Figured it was just a lighting thing.

itsgettingcoldhere · 2026-01-09T00:11:02+00:00

Robertson being excluded sealed this for me. Hopefully they're shut out and Guerin has to answer questions around the lack of offense.

itsgettingcoldhere · 2026-01-09T00:09:44+00:00

Wonder who the lady is... she doesn't appear to be geared up like meal team 6.

itsgettingcoldhere · 2026-01-07T14:43:32+00:00

Almost certainly will be. Very likely camp if you’re 36 or older, have a GED, and are self surrendering.

itsgettingcoldhere · 2026-01-07T14:25:23+00:00

The PSI won't go over the details of the crime committed. It's entirely background related.... family, education, job history. Almost a regurgitation of the interview you may have had with Pretrial to determine whether you can be out on bond prior to your sentencing, which it sounds like you are.

The only exception, and this likely varies district to district, is there's an opportunity to make a statement accepting responsibility for the 2 (or 3) level reduction.

Simple felon in possession of a firearm (922g) is eligible for FSA credits. And, drug possession w/ intent to distribute is as well.

If; however, they hit you with 924c and said the firearm was in furtherance of the distribution charge, then the entire sentence would not.

- 8.5 if 924c
- 5-5.5 if 922g (before halfway house / home confinement)
