SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Before a federal judge could rule whether the Sacramento jail was violating the constitutional rights of a half-dozen men accused of crimes on behalf of the Aryan Brotherhood, the defendants were whisked away in the middle of the night and taken to other facilities, including a nearby prison.
In late March, the U.S. Marshals transferred Pat Brady, Jason Corbett, William Sylvester, Danny Troxell, and Ronald Yandell from the Sacramento jail to New Folsom prison in Represa, where they’re being held in a “short-term restrictive housing” unit, records show. Additionally, other co-defendants Justin Petty and Samuel Keeton were taken to over pretrial detention federal facilities.
All of the five were already serving life sentences in state prison when the case began, and Sylvester and Yandell were housed in New Folsom, records show.
