 [NYPOST] Disgraced former New York Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver has been sprung from federal prison early on furlough — while he awaits a decision from the agency on whether he can serve out the remainder of his term in home confinement, a report said Tuesday.
Silver — who has served less than a year of his 6 1/2-year sentence — was cut loose from Otisville Prison, in Orange County, New York, and released to his home while awaiting the decision, a source familiar with the matter told the News Agency that Dare Not be Named.

Liberty for him. If it was the rest of us, it'd be justice for all.
In a statement, the Bureau of Prisons said Silver is still "designated" to Otisville Prison, but added that it has the power to transfer inmates to their home on furlough.
"We can share that the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) has authority to transfer inmates to their home on furlough for periods of time while they may continue to be considered for home confinement designation," a spokesperson said.
The BOP recently notified prosecutors in the Southern District of New York that it was considering cutting Silver loose on home confinement, a spokesperson for the district told The Post.
