In-Transit just means he’s being moved to a different facility. It could be a different prison, an RDAP facility, halfway house, etc.

Don't know for certain, but I'm guessing it's just a placeholder. *Technically* after someone has been sentenced, and before they surrender, they are "in-transit" to the facility, right?

 

[houndog60]

So how can you find out what facility they are going to

 

[digitalpoint]

Really only can just ask them. When you are sentenced, you can request a specific facility, but until your paperwork is processed by the Bureau of Prisons, that's all it is (a request). They will notify the person of the facility they are to report to, but that's not public info.

So either need to wait until they report, or you need to ask them where the BoP places them.

It could also mean he is awaiting sentencing or new charges at a facility that isnt BOP (county jail, etc)
