Does the hold, the cell location, and the $50 credit mean he is really IN the slammer?

IIRC, in Florida, the house you live in is sheltered from creditors in bankruptcy. Even if it's Mar-A-Lago.

I recall reading that a few years ago Mr. Berkman's creditors pushed him into an involuntary bankruptcy after he had moved to Florida, but before he had met the residency requirement to protect his homestead ("mansionstead"?) from his creditors, specifically because of the large Florida exemption.

Note to future self: make sure to get elected first.

Any chance we'll see Portlandia's current mayor in a similar photo for voter and tax fraud?

Zillow says it was last sold in August 2004 - looks like he's hung on to it.

On the bright side, he should be used to living in the Big House.
