Federal Medical Center, Rochester
- Federal Medical Center, Rochester
Federal Medical Center, Rochester (FMC Rochester) is a United States Federal Bureau of Prisons facility in southeast Minnesota which provides specialized and long-term physical and mental health medical care to male offenders. It is on the campus of the former state hospital on the edge of Rochester, about two miles (3 km) east of downtown.
Prominent inmates of FMC Rochester have included televangelist Jim Bakker and presidential candidate Lyndon LaRouche, who shared a cell for some time, as well as former member of Congress James Traficant. Sheikh Omar Abdel-Rahman was housed there, but was transferred to a more secure prison because of concern Al-Qaeda might try to free him.
