But the prison sentence facing ISIS Beatle member El Shafee will be at ADX - Florence in Colorado, a prison renowned for its tough prisoners and isolation.Inmates held at the facility include terrorists, mobsters, white supremacists, serial killers, drug kingpins, cult leaders and generally bad eggs not fit to be among the public.The setlist of dangerous individuals spend 23 hours of their day completely isolated in supposedly soundproof cells of 7ft by 12ft with a four-inch slit above their heads to make for a window.Robert Hood, an ex-warden of the prison, said: "This place is not designed for humanity."Describing the state of ADX Florence, Normal Carlson, the former director of the Federal Bureau of Prisons described it as a place for "a very small subset of the inmate population who show absolutely no concern for human life".Nobody has escaped the prison, with most of the 341 inmates getting out through death, or if they're very lucky, a transfer to another facility, The Mirror reports.A.
