NEW YORK: A lawsuit says fallen financier Bernard Madoff sleeps on the lower bunk of a cell he shares with a drug offender, eats pizza cooked by a child molester, and spends time with mob boss Carmine Persico and convicted spy Jonathan Pollard.
The snapshot of Madoff's prison life is in papers filed Tuesday in Manhattan by a lawyer who represents about a dozen victims of Madoff's massive Ponzi scheme. Attorney Joseph Cotchett interviewed Madoff in July at the Butner Federal Correctional Complex near Raleigh, North Carolina.
The new filing expands an earlier lawsuit against various Madoff associates and financial institutions.
Madoff's lawyer, Ira Sorkin, declined to discuss his client's prison life.
