Best Answer

Yes. Interstate compact agreements can allow a state prisoner in one state to be housed in a state prison in another state. This is sometimes done when a member of law enforcement commits a crime and goes to prison. The State where they are sentenced sometimes will transfer them to another state for their safety.
