Prison OffensesElements18 U.S.C. § 1792
--
"Federal penal, detention, or correctional facility"
| |
Title 18, United States Code, Section 1792 refers to "Federal
penal,
detention, or correctional facility," whereas Section 1791(a) refers to
"prison,"
which is in turn defined in Section 1791(d) as a "federal correctional,
detention, or penal facility." Indictments under Section 1792 for mutiny or
riot
should avoid the use of the term "prison." See this Manual at 1770.
