Does a federal inmate do .65 or .85 percentile of there time?

Federal inmates typically serve 85% of their sentence due to the Truth in Sentencing Act, which mandates that violent offenders serve at least 85% of their time before becoming eligible for parole. However, for non-violent offenders, the percentage can be lower, potentially allowing them to serve as little as 65% of their sentence with good behavior credits. It's essential to note that specific circumstances and program participation can affect the actual time served.
