Reply to comment by DeliMcPickles in DC man sentenced for shooting death of father while walking with children by Ninjroid

DC Superior Court is not a federal court. It’s judges are picked by the president and confirmed by the Senate, but it’s not in the federal system. DC inmates who are convicted of felonies go into the BOP system because of a 1997 law enacted by Congress.

Sure. But unlike all other cities it's federally staffed. The differences seem like semantics.
