Look up the recent case of Aaron Singerman. He was sentenced to five years, but was out in ten months. Didn't spend a single Christmas behind bars. Now, this was presumably for some form of cooperation, and the circumstances are unclear -- but it's just not true that the Feds won't let you out early if they feel like it.

Now, this was presumably for some form of cooperation, and the circumstances are unclear -- but it's just not true that the Feds won't let you out early if they feel like it. His sentence was reduced to 36 months in a court action that was publicly reported, and there were several subsequent sealed actions between then and the release. > but it's just not true that the Feds won't let you out early if they feel like it. A reduction in sentence is a very different thing than early release.
