I don't think it's special treatment.  Butner is the hospital prison, such as it is, as is Carswell for women.  If you're sick enough, you get sent to Butner.  BOP has an obligation not to neglect (entirely) the medical care of prisoners.

Last i recall, Springfield, Missouri was the only medical facility that could deal with admax patients...

I'm not sure butner was rated for max security... But i could be wrong, it's been a long time.

 

By the way, there's like 6 medical facilities... They're designated as FMC, while Springfield is designated MCFP

Yeah, you're right about that.  There are several.  I think they are all "administrative," meaning all levels of security.

Carswell has death row and a number of "admax" female prisoners.

Butner gets talked about the most in sentencing circles because it's where they hold "civilly committed" sex offenders, who receive a practical life sentence, despite having received a criminal sentence of a finite number of years.  Some kind of down-the-rabbit-hole shit.

Never read any detail about the suicide (manner, mechanism, etc.)-- why are they being so HIPAA about it versus other infamous people who do it?
