United States federal prison for male inmates in Indiana
The prison complex at Terre Haute is located about 70 miles west of Indianapolis. Three prison compounds are separated by their own boundaries, and they each confine offenders of their own security levels. At the Federal Prison Camp Terre Haute, minimum-security offenders, many of whom are serving time for white collar crimes, live within open boundaries. They provide much of the manpower to maintain the grounds of the two adjacent prisons.
