OTOH, as a prominent neo-Nazi he'll probably have a lot of friends there, both among the inmates and the guards - he's going to be the private cell / loyal underlings / anybody who messes with you gets beat up type of prisoner.

(everybody gets all inappropriately crow-y about what happens to child molesters in prison, but it's also worth pointing out when that system works the opposite way)

Definitely a possibility. But surely there are some guards who don't take well to the assault on the Capitol Police.

Enjoy, hope he takes some remedial civics lessons and cult deprogramming classes. He'll have lord of time to do so.
