Holding the BOP Accountable and Assisting Fellow Inmates
From Private Investigator to Inmate
Larry Levine, founder of Wall Street Prison Consultants, is a former private investigator who operated a firm in Los Angeles, California. In 1998, his life took an unexpected turn when he was arrested by an FBI-Secret Service led Organized Crime Task Force. Levine was charged with racketeering, securities fraud, obstruction of justice, and narcotics trafficking, and eventually received a ten-year concurrent sentence in federal prison.
During his time in custody, Levine served at 11 federal correctional institutions across various security levels in five different states. He personally experienced the confusion and fear that first-time offenders face when entering federal custody. While incarcerated, Levine began assisting fellow inmates with their defense by reviewing legal documents, researching case law, and explaining criminal defense strategies and possible sentencing departures.
Larry Levine Taking on the BOP
One of Levine’s most notable accomplishments during his incarceration was filing a federal Habeas Corpus motion while being held at a federal prison in Texas. His legal action led to over 100 misclassified inmates being transferred to lower security facilities. This bold move caught the attention of both inmates and the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) staff, showcasing Levine’s determination to hold the BOP accountable for their actions.
Inmates like Levine, who challenge the BOP’s policies and practices, are often disliked by the staff because they expose the BOP’s shortcomings and force them to adhere to their own rules and regulations. By advocating for inmates’ rights and pushing for fair treatment, Levine became a thorn in the side of the BOP, but also a valuable resource for those seeking guidance and assistance.
Becoming a Prison Consultant
After recognizing the lack of support and guidance for inmates, Levine decided to use his knowledge and experience to help others navigate the complexities of the federal prison system. He assisted inmates in filing habeas corpus petitions, obtaining federal sentence reductions, securing medical care, transfers, job changes, additional halfway house time, furloughs, visitation, and dealing with BOP staff and internal policy issues.
Levine’s unique background and experience led to the creation of Wall Street Prison Consultants, where he now serves as the director. His primary service is to provide coaching to defendants surrendering into the BOP, as well as assistance in taking advantage of inmate programs that can significantly reduce the time spent in custody.
Media Presence & Expertise
Helping Defendants & Inmates
Today, Levine helps defendants navigate the federal criminal judicial process by explaining the ramifications of going to trial versus taking a plea agreement and how the US Sentencing Guidelines can reward defendants who cooperate and plead out. He also provides coaching to defendants entering the BOP, assisting them in obtaining RDAP federal sentence reductions, 2nd Chance Act early releases, and other BOP programs, as well as designation to a desirable facility.
His ultimate goal is to train defendants in prison survival and help them get back to their loved ones as safely and quickly as possible. Larry Levine’s expertise and personal experience make him a valuable resource for those facing the challenges of federal custody. His dedication to helping others navigate the complex world of the BOP and holding the system accountable has earned him a reputation as a trusted and knowledgeable prison consultant.
